Sanctuary of Mission San Xavier del Bac_image #1

The highest statues in the sanctuary, or main altar, of the Mission San Xavier del Bac are God the Father with angels on each side overlooking the Virgin of the Immaculate Conception, who is surrounded by angels and ornamentation. Gold, representing divinity and kingship, is the predominant color. The slides in this collection were filmed on Kodachrome 64 film. In 2003 the slides were scanned on a Minolta Dimage Multiscan Pro at 48 bit color. Each TIFF scan was 11.68 inches by 7.88 inches with a resolution of 300 ppi. The file size was approx. 47.4 MB. In Nov 2006, the original TIFF scans were cropped, color corrected, resized to 6.08 inches by 8.89 inches with a resolution of 72 ppi and converted to JPEGs using ACDSee, v8.0.
