Historical context

Benedito Calixto produced this oil on canvas in 2017. The piece is held by Museu Paulista da USP, São Paulo and is in the public domain under Public Domain; we sourced the file from the institution’s open-access program and prepared it for archival printing.

On the category. Coffee as global agricultural object — Brazilian fazenda canvases, Caribbean plantation lithographs, Indonesian and African origin views. We treat the category with curatorial care: the visual document is unique, the labor system depicted is part of the history, and we name it when the iconography asks for it.

The master file is 4402 × 3120 pixels. At 300 DPI it prints clean at approximately 14 inches on the long edge before any visible loss; below that scale all three included print sizes hold cleanly.
