Description
The canvas runs large, close to two metres across, built for a wall where a viewer has room to step back. At that distance the figures read close to life size, and the stone arch of the temple frames the scene the way a doorway might frame a room you were not meant to enter. This Diana and Actaeon reproduction keeps that scale available to a private wall, not just a gallery one.
About Diana and Actaeon Reproduction
Painted between 1556 and 1559 for King Philip II of Spain, the picture belongs to the series of mythological poesie that Titian conceived as painted equivalents of verse drawn from the Metamorphoses of Ovid. The moment shown is the one where a young hunter, separated from his companions, stumbles on the secret bathing place of Diana, goddess of the hunt, and her nymphs. Diana is marked out by the crescent moon fixed in her hair, and her anger shows plainly in her turn and her raised arm. A dark-skinned attendant steps in front of her to block the view, while several nymphs scramble for cover, their poses and faces pulling in different directions and giving the group its motion.
Titian sets the encounter inside the ruins of a forest temple rather than the cave of the original text, with a fountain, a deer skull, and hunting trophies scattered through the stonework as a hint of what is coming for the intruder. The colour is rich and broken, laid down with loose, visible strokes that catch light across skin and drapery alike. It is late work, painted when his brush had grown freer and less bound to outline, and the handling here, warm flesh tones against cool stone and shadow, shows that freedom at full stretch.
The hand-painted reproduction
Our painters study the original composition, palette, and brushwork and rebuild the picture by hand on canvas, stroke by stroke, rather than printing it. The result is a museum quality hand-painted oil painting reproduction, with real paint sitting in ridges and thin passages where the original has them, so the surface catches light the way an oil painting does and not the way a flat print does. Four and a half centuries on, the picture still holds the eye because the drama plays out in bodies and gesture rather than symbol, and a hand-painted version keeps that drama in actual paint, not a scan of it.
