Hever Castle
Commission

Eli Ofir was commissioned by Hever Castle to create a series of portraits showing the castle in its glory as it is today, and in addition some historic portraits re-creating scenes form Medieval times, depicting King Henry VIII with Anne Boleyn and some Knights in Armour. The original portraits are hanging in the castle owners homes and the prints are sold in the castle shop on various stationary.

Historic re-creations are frequently commissioned mainly from owners of historic and listed properties.

Mr Eli Ofir

A gentle twist to perspective

“…When I’m drawing a house, the fine detail of my pen work takes me on a magical journey where the history of each property is revealed with every brick and stone I immortalise. The uneven lines of the roof, walls and beams deepen this mystery. That’s why I slightly enhance these elements to bring out the warmth and personality of the houses. This Gentle Twist to Perspective is my unique style and my artistic signature. It transforms a house into a work of art that tells an ancient story. …”

About Eli Ofir

“I was so excited about the portraits that I couldn’t wait until my husband’s birthday and had to surprise him with them early! He was blown away ! Absolutely loves them as do I - his most meaningful comment was that you have captured the essence and spirit of the place. The mini portraits of the front door/ well and the gazebo / annex are just so evocative of all we love about this place. Thank you for your artistry and incredible attention to detail. Know that your “babies” are in appreciative hands !”
