For your viewing pleasure the picture was carefully enhanced with a special artistic treatment. The result preserves the character of the original image but looks like a realistic painting and can be printed in large sizes. The colors are more vibrant and vivid than in the original photography. It will look amazing as large print, canvas print, metal or acrylic print on the wall of your living room, dining room or bedroom. Also a great fit for a man cave, a waiting room or a lobby.
