Välj bland våra förinställda storlekar som motsvarar konstverkets ursprungliga proportioner.
Du kan ange egna mått för att passa en specifik ram eller yta. Om den valda storleken inte matchar originalbildens proportioner kommer vi antingen att beskära konstverket eller utöka målningen med ytterligare handmålade element.

Observera att förhandsvisningen på skärmen inte återspeglar den faktiska beskärningen eller utökningen. Endast skissen visar den slutgiltiga kompositionen korrekt.
Även om anpassade storlekar är möjliga, rekommenderar vi att du väljer en dimension från den fördefinierade listan för att bevara originalproportionerna.
