Artist Inserts People From Classical Paintings Into Today’s World, And The Result Is Surprisingly Good
Have you ever thought how would those people from classical paintings look if they suddenly started living amongst us? No? We neither! But now we don’t have to because it was already done by Ukrainian artist Alexey Kondakov who used Photoshop to bring some of them into modern-day world.
The ongoing series (previously covered here and here), titled "The Daily Life Of Gods", is mostly set in Kiev and you can see the figures created by different authors many years ago using public transport, sitting at bars, napping in public places, eating at local lunch joints, or selling flowers. These new settings show them in a completely different color so scroll down to witness it for yourself!

They almost look real. If I hadn't knew what was coming, it could have tricked my eyes and believe its real.
The moment when you realize she has her biceps in more shape than you!
How could you not lay down some sweet beats when you have a minotaur over your shoulder?!?
Not really, you can easily adjust the lighting artificially in Photoshop, it's usually pretty convincing.

Silence like a cancer grows, so let's make some noise. Pan and Dionysius like to dance with the ladies.
That's a bad-as* DJ. I wonder what song they would play in that era, some gospel music may be with auto tune in background.
You mean, some medieval chants? But, the guy and his buddies look more like a gang from hell. So, it must have been a much livelier sound ...

Oh, love is blind ("that's why people close their eyes when they kiss," children's words of wisdom).
I believe that's Diogenes searching for an honest man. But he's done better...he's found some loyal companions!
Germany. Looks like that place Central Park that they call "beach club" or "beach bar" at the hipster area Sternschanze in Hamburg (seems like Germans name places with sand on the ground "beach"). Picture depicts the best part of this place which basically corresponds to massive litter box: outside.
Hi everyone, don't bother going upstairs the washerwoman still isn't finished washing the clothes. She doesn't care that I only have my scarf to wear.
I enjoyed all of these but I think the original art's source deserves to be cited: it plays the biggest part in the success of the effect.
Whimsical and funny. I love the bold colors and the creative thought that went into each painting. Different than most art out in the market right now.
This reminds me of that site Worth 1000 - I wonder if it's still going?
well done!! hope you post some more!! These have a surreal quality about them.
These are awesome! Matching the lighting brings them to a whole other level.
Perfect eye for detail and very creative. I like the funny ones the most.
