Bui Vien Street Saigon (Tourist Area)

Reproduction Art - Saigon Vietnam

Bui Vien Street (District 1) Saigon is the place to come to if you want your own Van Gogh or Salvador Dali (well reproductions by Fine Art students). When I first saw the fine quality of many of these reproductions in several shops I thought there was some kind of 'catch' (maybe done by computers or something) - until I came across this artist copying a very famous photo of an Afghani girl.

I was lucky to get these photos - most of these shops dont allow cameras.

Many of the reproductions are at very reasonable prices generally $20-25 for most paintings (more for bigger paintings or finest quality).
