Do you happen to have the negative of the analog picture? You can do much bigger prints if you still have the negative.
The artwork is amazing! No wonder it caught the critiques eye.

No, unfortunately not - that would have been my first thought. Back then photos for a portfolio were taken by a professional photographer from the gallery. All they gave me was a hard copy.
I had other photos taken for a in-house publication by the company I worked for, and the photographer gave me the negatives (though b/w) so at least of those I have decent sizes. But this work was not among it. Only a portrait of me sitting in front of it. Beneath it you see another part of a painting where I have no record of. Come to think of it, I should have included that in my post:
I love this portrait! Is there any chance to get in contact with the photographer? They still might have the negatives stored somewhere :)
he died a long time ago. He was the official photographer of the Canadian Pacific Railway. Nick Morant. He did those with a old fashioned plate camera. He did give me the contact prints also. I might have them stashed somewhere. The scans I made from paper are large enough for what I am using it for.
I have slides of some old artwork, if this artwork is among them I would have to look, but they would need to be professionally scanned to digital.
I am sorry to hear that, I hope you find the slide! I only know professional film labs in Europe but I am sure there is plenty of them in Canada as well.
Bingo - good thing we had this conversation. I found a whole bunch of slides and negatives from way back when, then I researched and found a place in Vienna that looks super professional who would be able to scan my slides super large: X-LARGE 45 Megapixel = 5500 dpi
