I’d like a medium-sized (between 12” and 36”) oil painting that captures the grandeur of Persepolis, the ceremonial capital of ancient Persia. The style must be strictly realistic—accurate architectural detail, rich textures in the stone reliefs, and lifelike lighting that evokes the desert sun. Here’s what I need from you: • An initial sketch or digital mock-up so we can confirm composition and key landmarks (Apadana, Gate of All Nations, or other iconic structures you recommend). • The finished canvas, painted in oil with museum-quality materials that will last. • A few progress photos so I can follow along and request small tweaks before varnishing. • Safe packaging and shipping instructions once the work is dry. I can supply reference photos and historical links, but I’m happy to see additional visual research you find helpful. Let me know your estimated timeline for sketch approval, painting, drying, and delivery, and include any questions about logistics or creative direction.
