Collection: Famous Paintings – Paint by Numbers

Famous Paintings as Paint by Numbers

This collection is built around recognisable artworks rather than one visual style. Van Gogh’s swirling skies sit beside Monet landscapes, Klimt portraits, Vermeer’s Girl with a Pearl Earring, Munch’s The Scream and Leonardo da Vinci’s Mona Lisa.

The painting experience changes just as much from one artwork to the next. Some rely on broad areas of sky and background colour. Others are packed with pattern, clothing, faces or fine decorative detail.

Van Gogh Paint by Numbers

Van Gogh has the largest presence here, including Starry Night, Starry Night Over the Rhône, Sunflowers, Irises, Wheat Field with Cypresses and Café Terrace at Night. If he is the artist you came looking for, Van Gogh Paint by Numbers brings those designs together without the other painters.

Monet, Klimt, Vermeer and Other Artists

Monet brings softer landscapes and open fields, while Klimt is much more decorative, with patterned clothing and richly detailed compositions. Portrait lovers may prefer Vermeer, Klimt or Leonardo da Vinci. Those pieces also connect naturally with Portrait & Figure Paint by Numbers.

Landscape-based masterpieces can also appear in Landscape Paint by Numbers, while Sunflowers and Irises sit comfortably within Flower Paint by Numbers.

Can’t Find the Painting You Want?

We are often asked about famous paintings that are not already available in the standard collection. If you have a particular artwork in mind, you can use our Personalised Paint by Numbers UK service and upload a clear image of the painting you would like turned into a paint by numbers kit.

This is also useful for less common works by a favourite artist, or when you have found a specific version or composition that is not listed among the ready-made designs above.

Choosing a Famous Painting to Paint

A famous title does not tell you how long the painting will take. Klimt’s patterned surfaces, detailed portraits and Van Gogh’s textured skies all create very different numbered areas. Look at the artwork itself and choose according to how much small detail you actually want to work through.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will a famous painting paint by numbers kit look exactly like the original artwork?

No. A paint by numbers kit adapts the original artwork into numbered areas and a defined paint palette, so some colour transitions and fine details are simplified. The finished result keeps the recognisable composition and overall style without reproducing every brushstroke exactly.

Do I need to know the original painting before choosing a kit?

No. You can choose entirely by the image, colours and level of detail you enjoy. Knowing the artist or artwork is not necessary to paint the kit.
