Tips

A triptych is a work of art composed of three separate parts or images. When creating a photographic triptych three photographs are arranged next to each other, usually with a plain border between them.

We can create triptychs by using:

  • A single photograph split into three parts, using your software.
  • Three separate photographs all of the same size.
  • Three separate photographs of different sizes. For example, two photographs of the same size on each side and a larger (or smaller) one in the middle.
  • Three different photographs that can relate to the same subject or object.
  • Triptych designs can be horizontal, vertical, circular or ovoid.
