Memorial reissue & ancestral rite portrait — a year later, when the family is ready
A memorial portrait hastily made at the funeral home, redone a year later for ancestral rites and memorial days. Even without the original digital file, a printed copy is enough to restore via 32-year data.

How this work was made
After the funeral, after the 49th-day rite, as the first anniversary approaches — families finally find some peace. And looking again at the memorial portrait, they see what they hadn't seen before.
"The expression looks too stiff." "This isn't how mother actually looked." "The colors are off from how it was rushed at the funeral home." "The frame is too big for the ancestral rites table."
Davinci's memorial portrait reissue is a standard request. Even without the original digital file, a single printed copy from the funeral home is enough — Davinci restores the resolution, redoes the expression and tone with 32-year data, and produces a result on par with the original.
This work is a case finished for ancestral rites (jesa / charye) use after the funeral — keeping the warmth of expression while holding formal dignity. Sizes can be issued simultaneously: 11×14 inch original, 8R for the living room, 5R for the rite table — at no additional cost.

Memorial portrait clothing — suit, cardigan, or hanbok? A two-option comparison
Funeral-hall memorial portraits are usually suits, but families often feel 'that's not how they really looked' once it sits at the 49-day rite or columbarium for years. A real case of choosing between keeping the suit and switching to everyday wear, shown side by side.
Memorial portrait from a family photo — extracting one person from a group shot
No solo photo exists, but the likeness is clear in a holiday or trip family photo. A real case of separating one person from an old family photo and giving them new clothing and background for a memorial portrait.
Memorial portrait from an old ID photo — keep the suit or go casual
A 30-year-old ID photo from a drawer. A real case where the family compared the original suit against a no-tie casual version and chose for themselves. ID photos — front-facing, simple background — are among the easiest sources for a memorial portrait.
