Everybody loves to see a good "then and now" photo comparison of popular celebrities but what about a photo that is from both the "past" and the present? Thanks to the technology of the researchers at MIT-IBM Watson artificial intelligence Lab, people can transform photos into 15th-century oil paintings.

The site aiportraits.com uses an algorithm trained on 45,000 classical portraits to render any face into faux oil, watercolor, or ink. Ever wondered what today's stars would look like if they had their portrait done by done in the style of the Renaissance artists? Scroll down below to check out some museum-worthy masterpieces of current famous faces and don't forget to upvote your favorite celebrity photos!
