The recreation is 100% hand painted by Mark Kazav using oil paint, canvas and palette knife. Its not an identical copy, its a recreation of an old subject. This recreation will have texture unique just to this painting, a fingerprint that can never be repeated. My recreation will look similar but will have different texture, each knife stroke is unique and impossible to repeat. Each painting I create is one of a kind. The recreation has a very high gallery value of thousands of dollars just like the first originally created painting. Investing into recreations is worthwhile just like investing into original work.
