The painting itself
View of Villeneuve-lès-Avignon treats a sacred subject as something happening next door. Light is doing the theological work here: it arrives from one direction and decides who matters.
View of Villeneuve-lès-Avignon. Our painter follows the same logic rather than copying a photograph of it: the dark passages keep their colour instead of going black, so the light has something to work against.

Why hand-painting matters here
Printed, the shadows go to mud and the figures detach from the space they are standing in. A painter keeps the darkness transparent, which is what holds the room together.

| 32 × 24 in | 81 × 61 cm | Living room, above a sideboard |
| 30 × 24 in | 76 × 61 cm | Dining room, bedroom feature wall |
| 24 × 20 in | 60 × 50 cm | Study, home office, above a desk |

If you need a panoramic or an unusually tall canvas, that is a normal request here. We quote the canvas first; framing and shipping come after. Import duties and taxes fall to the buyer (DAP).

In practice it works best as a focal point in a living room. Because each canvas is built from scratch, we follow the original's proportions instead of trimming the image to a standard shape. Panoramic and vertical formats are both fine.
Before you order
Is it really painted by hand?
Yes. We hand-paint from public-domain source images, do not sell prints, and never claim the original.
Does changing the size change the composition?
No — we keep the original's proportions and scale from there, rather than cropping the image to fit a standard frame.
How long does a hand-painted version take?
Roughly two to four weeks of studio time, depending mostly on size and how much impasto the surface carries, then several more days for the oil to set before we photograph, pack and send.
