Memorial portraits, in loving memory

Yes. A good scan of a printed photo works well, and so does a photo of the print taken flat, in daylight, without reflections. We accept JPG, PNG, HEIC and WebP files up to 25 MB, at least 768 pixels on the shortest side, and after you upload we tell you if a sharper or brighter photo would give a better result. Your photos are used only to create your portrait.

Yes. From a cherished photo, we create a dignified portrait in the manner of the old masters. Palace Portrait, with its marble columns and heavy drapery, and Golden Age, with its luminous light, suit a memorial well: you can begin with Palace Portrait. If others appear in the photo, crop it before uploading, as long as the face stays sharp and not too small. For two people, such as grandparents, choose Couple.

A companion who was part of the family deserves a place of honor too. Choose Pet and upload a photo where their eyes are clear, ideally taken at their eye level. Golden Age, with its deep shadow and luminous light, is a gentle choice: you can begin with Golden Age, and try another style before you order.

Each portrait aims for a recognizable likeness, reimagined in a historical style, so clothing, setting and pose are artistic and some features may be interpreted. You see the portrait before you pay, and you can try again up to 3 times for each portrait, or start from a different photo. Once an order is placed, it goes into production as approved and can't be cancelled or changed, so take all the time you need before you order.

Yes. Approve the portrait yourself, then enter their address at checkout: we ship it straight to them, free on every print and canvas, and no receipt or invoice is included in the parcel. If you would rather choose the moment, the Digital Artwork is sent to you by email, to share when it feels right.
