Museum: a portrait on a deep, quiet background

Your subject alone on a single deep olive-umber field, lit from one side — the way museum portraits are painted — from $49, made to order.

Where it comes from. The museum portrait, from Rembrandt to Sargent: one face, lit from one side, against a single dark field.

Best for. One pet or one person. Busy backgrounds disappear entirely, so a cluttered photo becomes a calm painting.

Where it hangs. Rooms with darker walls or a single feature wall; it reads well from across a room because there is nothing to compete with the face.

The brushwork. Loaded-brush strokes on the subject, a calm single-colour field behind — the contrast is the point.
