The Neo-Traditional Romantic style is a refined evolution of Neo-Traditional tattooing, blending bold lines and deep shading with a softer, more sentimental aesthetic.

Rooted in Traditional tattooing, it stands apart through its richness of detail, a sophisticated colour palette, and an atmosphere reminiscent of 19th-century Romanticism and Pre-Raphaelite art.

Characterized by harmonious compositions and an almost painterly quality, this style draws inspiration from enigmatic female faces portraits, elegant flowers, mythological scenes, jewelry and delicate symbolism.

Subjects often appear as if they have stepped out of classical paintings, with melancholic gazes and intricate baroque details enriching the design. The colour palette relies on soft gradients and refined combinations, enhancing the sense of elegance and nostalgia.

Thanks to its versatility, Neo-Traditional Romantic is a perfect meeting point between tattooing tradition and contemporary artistic sensibility, making it ideal for those seeking a timeless yet iconic work of art on their skin.
