What size do these print at?

Each render is composed as a dramatic single-figure panel, suited to a poster or a framed print.

Can I get a different vision, like a swan or a forest?

Yes — the direction field takes any subject, and the same three finishes render it.

What's the difference between the three finishes?

Jewelled oil is dense, gilded and richly coloured; soft pastel is hazier and dreamlike; charcoal noir strips it to stark black-and-white contrast.

Is this a copy of a real Moreau or Redon painting?

No — it's an original rendered image in the register of the movement, not a reproduction of any named painting.

Symbolism: the sphinx, the closed eyes, the island of the dead

Symbolism — a sphinx with a woman's face and a leopard's body reared up against a young man in a jewelled tunic, a cliff and a dark sea behind them, one broken column standing at their side, painted in dense jewelled oil, every surface encrusted with gold ornament, the whole held as still as an icon

Reading 1The sphinx

Reading 2Closed eyes

Reading 3Island of the dead

Symbolism is Moreau, Redon and Khnopff: the dream painted straight — a sphinx with a woman's face, a floating eye, closed eyes and a lily, in gold, dusk and silence. These nine render the sphinx, closed eyes and the island of the dead, each across three finishes — jewelled oil, soft pastel, and charcoal noir. Ask for a swan instead, a forest setting, or a crown of stars — the same three finishes carry it.

About toile

This page is a showcase and a starting point: nine samples already rendered, three readings of the pack crossed with three styles, each shown at the size and ratio it was made for. Take any of them further on the wall with a few words, or ask for all nine again under your own direction; a sign-in keeps what you make, and it is free while Toile is new. The recipe behind each sample — the subject, the style, the palette, the framing — travels with the image rather than staying private to the render: it is in the alt text of every sample and in the page's own structured data, so a search engine reads the same handles a person would.
