REPRODUCTION PROCESS
We combine the highest resolution digital printing technology along with highly-skilled
specialist craftsman to provide a reproduction that is indistinguishable from the real painting.
1
THE ORIGINAL IMAGE
To begin with we require a high-resolution image:
​
​​> You may already own an image to the required pixel size.
​
> We can organise for your own painting to be photographed.
​
THE PROOF
Once we have received your image we check the pixel count to ensure the image is appropriately sized, then output a number of colour print proofs onto a substrate closely matching that of the original picture.
​
When the print proofs are ready we can either send these to you to check against the original, if owned by yourself; or we will take the print proofs ourselves and organise for these to be checked should the painting be hung elsewhere.
​
Upon either feedback provided to us, or our own proofing, we will adjust the colours accordingly to ensure a perfect match, before sending you a final colour print proof for approval.

PRINT & HAND FINISHING
Using the highest resolution digital printing technology available, we will ensure your painting is reproduced with the richest colour and perfect tonal ranges.
​
The final and most critical stage in producing an authentic reproduction is the hand finishing phase, which allows our highly-skilled specialists to recapture the subtle texture of brush strokes by applying top coats of varnish.
FRAMING, LIGHTING & DELIVERY
Your picture can be provided:
​
> As a rolled canvas with separate stretchers for assembly by a framer.
​
> With the canvas mounted on stretchers ready for framing.
​
> As a fully-framed picture. We work in partnership with the finest framers to provide either reproduction or antique
frames contemporaneous with your picture.
​
> Complete with the most advanced LED picture lighting to ensure your Family Copy is perfectly lit.
​
We can ship your picture worldwide using our international carriers. Each picture is wrapped, crated and shipped using a tracked service. All pictures are insured during transit.

"I have now had a chance to look at the painting, and I am delighted with the result. The colours are very fresh, and the surface has a good texture and thickness to it."
