Return of Christ at the Temple Mount
A cinematic vision of Christ appearing above Jerusalem, arms open, light streaming from his hands as lightning splits the storm clouds. Armored angels descend at his side. Below, the city and the Temple Mount are caught in conflict: fires burn along the walls, tanks and soldiers advance, and civilians scatter through the streets.
These passages describe the return of Christ in language of cloud, light and judgment. The painting gathers them into a single scene over the city where Scripture places the moment.

What this file can honestly print
Measured from the real master files. Effective resolution is an upper bound (it assumes the print matches the image shape; a crop lowers it). Around 150 dpi and above looks good at normal wall distance, and 240 and above is excellent.

Ideal canvas sizes
This painting is a wide panorama (16:9). For a canvas with nothing cut off, order one of the exact-fit sizes - most online canvas printers accept custom sizes. Standard sizes work too but trim the edges. The $29 Personal file is 4,500 px wide, so it suits smaller canvases; the Large-Format and Church files are full resolution.
| Widescreen canvas | Fit | Personal ($29) | Large-Format / Church |
|---|---|---|---|
| 16 x 9 in exact fit | Matches the painting's shape - nothing cropped | Excellent | Excellent |
| 32 x 18 in exact fit | Matches the painting's shape - nothing cropped | Fair - view from a distance | Excellent |
| 48 x 27 in exact fit | Matches the painting's shape - nothing cropped | Too large for this file | Very good |
| 24 x 12 in | Trims about 10% from top and bottom | Very good | Excellent |
| 40 x 20 in | Trims about 10% from top and bottom | Fair - view from a distance | Excellent |
| 36 x 24 in | Trims about 16% from the sides | Fair - view from a distance | Excellent |
| 30 x 20 in | Trims about 16% from the sides | Fair - view from a distance | Excellent |
| 40 x 30 in | Trims about 26% from the sides | Too large for this file | Very good |
Gallery-wrapped canvas folds about 1.5 in around each edge; choose the printer's "mirror" wrap so the painting itself stays on the front. Keep faces and painted lettering away from the edges.
Aspect-ratio versions
Deliberate crops of the real master. Nothing is stretched or generated. Each crop keeps the centre of the composition and discards edges, so the painting's framing changes. Native-resolution crops exist for print delivery.
