Modern Renaissance. Celebrities in Classic Art Paintings

Nice to see you, our dear readers! As usual, every Tuesday we present you the captivating post dedicated to the works of one author, but today we want to show you something special. Not long ago I have found the cool series of works that were submitted by various artists to the contest Modern Renaissance. The idea of this contest is to depict modern celebrities as if they were painted in classic art style on the old canvases. The special mood of the Renaissance paintings helps add some mystery to the appearances of the stars, but you can recognize them due to some peculiar features. I hope that you will enjoy this collection of wonderful artworks and find the one you like best.
