The painting itself
Street Scene, France is as much architecture as painting. Architecture is used as scaffolding: it sets the intervals and lets the light fall where it wants.
Street Scene, France. Our painter follows the same logic rather than copying a photograph of it: the distant stone stays soft and only the near detail is sharpened, which keeps the street deep.

What makes it hard to copy
A press gives every window and cornice the same hard edge. The painter lets the distance go soft, which is what makes a street feel like a street rather than a diagram.

This one reads well on a stairwell wall, where the depth opens the space up. Nothing gets cropped to suit a standard canvas. We build to the original's dimensions and scale from there.
The practical questions
How do I know what size will look right?
Measure the wall and send a photograph. We will say honestly if the canvas you have in mind is too small for the space, which is the most common mistake.
Is there a rush option?
It depends on the canvas and what else is in the studio. Ask on WhatsApp with your size and we will tell you straight what is possible.
What about duties and import taxes?
Those are the buyer's responsibility (DAP). The amounts are set by your customs authority, not by us.
