A hand-painted reproduction belongs in a specialist artist’s studio. At Artiste de Paris, I respect the style, colours and technique of the original master.
One of my specialties: oil portraits painted from your photos (wedding, family, personal portrait, copy of an ancestor’s portrait, old photograph). A clear image is enough: I’ll send a quote for your preferred size, then provide an HD preview photo before shipping.

Each painting is entirely hand-painted, from the initial sketch to the final brushstrokes, using traditional oil painting techniques. Preparing the canvas, drawing, layering: everything is done with care to create a unique and durable work of art.
This craftsmanship, the result of expertise cultivated and refined over more than 20 years, allows for the reproduction of rich nuances, deep colors, and fidelity to the model.

A hand-painted painting reproduction is created by an artist using traditional techniques, such as oil painting on canvas. Unlike digital prints, each brushstroke is unique, resulting in an authentic and durable finish.
A hand-painted reproduction uses traditional painting materials and techniques, while a print is simply an image that has been printed. The reproduction is more vivid, textured, and closer to the original.
The price of a hand-painted copy of a painting or portrait generally varies between €320 and €950, depending on the format, complexity, and subject. As each project is unique, a personalized quote is provided to refine the price.
