Vintage Portraiture
Creating Timeless Equestrian Wall Art
Preserving Memories through Art
Vintage Portraits are created for those who wish to preserve the presence and spirit of their horse in a truly timeless form. Blending sentimental significance with understated elegance, each portrait is thoughtfully crafted to capture a personal connection while becoming a sophisticated addition to any thoughtfully curated interior.
What makes a Vintage Portrait?
Many contemporary equestrian portraits are shaped by modern aesthetics, with a distinctly contemporary look and feel. While visually striking, they do not always find their place naturally within more traditional or classically styled interiors.
Vintage Portraits begin with a different philosophy. Conceived from the outset as complete works of art, they bring together the timeless atmosphere of classical painting and the clarity, depth, and expressive power of photography. More than simply capturing a horse’s appearance, they seek to reveal its character, presence, and individuality.
The result is a portrait that feels both timeless and deeply personal — an artwork that belongs as naturally in a thoughtfully curated interior as it does in the story of the horse itself. Created to transcend passing trends, it is a piece to be lived with, appreciated, and treasured for generations.
STEP 01
Initial Inquiry
The process begins with your initial enquiry and a first exchange. If the project feels aligned from both sides, a personal consultation follows to discuss the portrait and the overall direction in more detail.
This already creates a first sense of the atmosphere and character the finished piece will later carry.
STEP 02
The Photo Session
The session takes place in the familiar surroundings of your horse’s home, allowing the process to unfold in a calm and unhurried atmosphere, with the time needed for different expressions, moods and compositions to emerge naturally.
Afterwards, we explore a selection of frame samples to get a first impression of different styles, materials and overall directions.
STEP 03
Picture time
Shortly after the session, a private online gallery becomes available, containing all selected portraits from the session.
This allows the images to be viewed quietly and without pressure before the final selection is made during a personal consultation.
STEP 04
Creating the Art
With the final portrait selected, the Vintage refinement process begins. A first digital preview is then shared, allowing the overall atmosphere and visual direction of the portrait to be experienced.
Afterwards, size, framing and overall presentation are coordinated in detail, including interior visualisation where desired.
Every Vintage Portrait begins with a personal photoshoot and gradually takes shape as an individual work of art. The chosen image is carefully refined in my signature vintage style and produced as a high-quality mounted Fine Art Print.
To complete your portrait, you can choose between a fully framed artwork or a Fine Art Print for your own framing. With the framed option, a curated selection of frame profiles is already included in the price.
The following sizes are intended as a guide to the price range of a portrait. Size and finish remain flexible and are tailored individually after the photoshoot.
