Hello!

Is anyone able to tell us what the term is for a photograph that's been processed or altered in such a way that it looks almost like a painting or sketch? We have a number of framed portraits like this; visually they fall halfway between a photograph and a painting. In some cases, we have the original photograph that was clearly used to create the altered portrait. (Sample attached)

There must be a name for this, but we just haven't been able to find what that is!
