The present invention relates to a method for removing an object from a texture, the method comprising: performing semantic segmentation in a plurality of digital input images using a plurality of semantic classes; identifying, in at least the first input image, one or more possible instances of a representation of an object belonging to the target object class, each possible instance consisting of a plurality of consecutive instance pixels of the image pixels; determining whether the instance pixel is a target pixel; and replacing the target pixel in the texture with a replacement pixel obtained from the one or more digital input images, the step of determining whether the instance pixel is the target pixel comprising: combining the individually segmented input images into a single 3D model using a structure from motion recovery algorithm and a known position and orientation; mapping the instance pixels to a common coordinate system; projecting the mapped instance pixels to other input images; and determinin
