In pictures: Renaissance makeover

Most of the rooms in Robert Burns's Brighton council house have been transformed with reproductions of Renaissance paintings.

Painter and decorator Mr Burns has copied works by masters such as Botticelli, Raphael and Correggio.

Emulsion and acrylic paints left over from his work were used to create the eye-catching copies.

The exterior of the three-bedroom council house gives no clue of its colourful interior.

Mr Burns was inspired by art books to try his hand at reproducing some of the great masters.

Only two rooms remain untouched by the artistic endeavours of Mr Burns, whose wife Linda says she loves the result.
