Dexter

Art Digitisation

Turn an original artwork into a digital file for documentation, web and print. We assess the work, recommend a suitable method and confirm scope, price and estimated delivery time before work begins.

Art Digitisation

The right method for each original

01

Scanned art digitisation

For flat, unframed and non-sensitive originals that fit safely on the scanner bed. The method is suitable for works up to A3 when the material and surface permit scanner contact.

02

Photographed art reproduction

For larger, textured, framed, glazed, fragile or reflective works, and for work that must be carried out on location. Complex rigging, specialist reflection control and stitching are assessed separately.

The price list applies to works that fit the stated boundaries and can be handled using the standard setup. Sensitive pigments, damage, heavy texture, reflections, glazing, specialist rigging, extensive retouching or other exceptions may require a separate quote.
