“A client wanted us to paint a portrait of Turing in order to commemorate the sixtieth anniversary of his death,” said Tim Bertram, a spokesman for Fabulous Masterpieces. “However, this was a painting with a small difference – it was to be in the style of Vincent Van Gogh!” Fabulous Masterpieces sourced an old black and white photo of the renowned Bletchley Park code breaker and created a truly original piece quite unlike any other seen before. Turing’s work helped Britain to decipher encrypted messages from the German enigma machine, something which helped the Allied war effort immeasurably. Turing’s later life was beset by tragedy; arrested in 1952 for his homosexuality, he committed suicide just two years later. Fabulous Masterpieces produces paintings from photos in as little as a month. To view the company’s portfolio, visit their website.
