Originals in this selection, Photorealism, Graphite, under 500 euro.
Formats from 36 x 26 to 53 x 36 cm.
Accuracy on a small scale
Photorealism in graphite is precision you feel before you name it: everything is right, highlights, pores, folds of cloth. You can buy photorealistic graphite drawings for sale under 500 euro here when you want astonishment in a smaller format.
Very fine studies of fruit, hands, eyes or everyday objects are possible at this price level because the size is limited, not the ambition. With graded graphite pencils, gradients arise that are hardly distinguishable from a photograph.

Close viewing pays off
Hang such sheets at eye level and within reach, for instance in a hallway or beside a bed. That way you notice subtleties you overlook from afar. A mat in warm white gives the small motif enough room.
What matters
Paper without strong texture matters for this technique. Ask about the paper type and check detail images to see whether the transitions look even. A loupe, kept in mind, does no harm: good photorealistic sheets hold up even at close range without turning coarse or blotchy.
