From d'Agoty's *Anatomy of the Head* — the muscles and vessels of the face and neck rendered in his signature saturated colour mezzotint, at once clinical and painterly. Where a contemporary engraver would have given you clean line and cross-hatching, d'Agoty gives you flesh tones, depth, and a disquieting warmth. A rare fusion of the new science of colour printing with the oldest subject of all: ourselves.

Before a size goes on sale, the file is measured against it: pixels per inch at that size, how much of the picture a crop would lose, tone and sharpness. A size that fails is not offered, so there is nothing to choose wrong.
