Turn a photo into a Photo Relic in three steps

Upload, prompt, render. The composer locks the 4:5 portrait ratio so the output is ready to post or print.

01Upload

Portraits, architecture, botanicals, and objects all age beautifully. The AI adds paper wear, faded ink, and antique typography.

02Prompt

Name the era

The default prompt sets 19th-century archive styling. Add century, paper type, or ink color to push the relic further back or forward in time.

03Render

Get a 4:5 relic poster

Locked to 4:5 portrait. The result looks like a rescued archival print — perfect for gallery walls, editorial covers, and heritage campaigns.

Use cases

Where relic editorials resonate

Projects that need history, gravitas, and the texture of a found object.

Heritage brands

Anniversary campaigns, museum stores, and legacy products gain instant authority.

Editorial covers

History podcasts, essays, and long-form journalism get a credible, archival opener.

Event posters

Exhibitions, lectures, and classical concerts feel established before the first line is read.

Home décor

Personal photos become heirloom-style wall art that looks collected over decades.

Aging levers

How to control the relic look

Prompt controls that move the poster between lightly aged and deeply antique.

Paper age

Use "cream stock," "yellowed parchment," or "foxed paper" to set the deterioration level.

Ink color

Name "sepia," "iron-gall," "faded cyanotype," or "charcoal" to match a specific printing era.

Edge damage

Request "torn edges," "deckled borders," or "burned corners" for more dramatic distress.

Typography era

Add "Victorian serif," "art nouveau label," or "typewriter caption" to anchor the time period.

Style spec

What Photo Relic Editorial always includes

The default style is a believable archival object. Override era, paper, and ink in the prompt.

01

Aged paper base

The background is never clean white — it carries cream, yellow, or foxing tones.

02

Faded ink palette

Colors are muted by time: sepia, iron-gall, or desaturated pigment.

03

Torn or deckled edges

The poster looks physically cut or rescued from a larger sheet.

04

Archival typography

Type is rendered in period-appropriate serif or stamp lettering.

05

4:5 portrait crop

Locked ratio that echoes vintage book plates and exhibition posters.
