Premium quality hand finished reproduction artwork. 

At Artwork Reproductions, we understand that the essence of a masterpiece lies in every brushstroke, hue, and shadow. Our mission is to preserve this essence, creating reproductions that stand as true reflections of the original. Today, we invite you behind the scenes to witness the meticulous process of photographic capture and colour matching that ensures the unparalleled quality of our reproductions.


Step 1: The Photographic Capture


Every reproduction journey begins with a detailed photographic capture of the artwork. Using state-of-the-art cameras and lighting setups, we meticulously photograph the original piece. The aim is to capture every detail, from the subtlest textures to the most vibrant colours. Our team, led by  Jason, pays close attention to ensuring that the lighting is even and captures without imperfection. 


This step is not merely about taking a picture; it's about creating a digital representation that can later be transformed into a physical reproduction. The precision in capturing the artwork forms the foundation of a reproduction that mirrors the original in every aspect.


Step 2: Colour Matching with the Original


Once the photographic capture is complete, the next step is colour matching. This process involves printing a proof and then comparing it side-by-side with the original artwork.  With our expert eye for detail, ensuring that every colour is matched perfectly. Each proof is scrutinised under various lighting conditions to guarantee consistency and accuracy.


Colour matching is an art in itself. It's about more than just matching shades; it's about capturing the mood, the vibrancy, and the subtle transitions that make the artwork unique. This stage can involve multiple rounds of adjustments, fine-tuning until the printed proof becomes indistinguishable from the original.


The Result: A True Reflection of the Original


Our commitment to quality and attention to detail ensures that every reproduction we create is a masterpiece in its own right. Clients such as Sotheby’s and Christie’s trust us because we deliver reproductions that resonate with the same beauty and authenticity as the original artwork.


Whether you are an art collector, a gallery, or an enthusiast, our reproductions are crafted to meet the highest standards, preserving the legacy of art for generations to come.


Hand finishing provides the viewer with added impasto with brush strokes across the body of the whole artwork, hand applied with delicate detail.
