Photographer Takes a Photo which Looks Like the Famous Self-Portrait of Van Gogh

• Tweet

Some time ago a stranger asked me to make his portrait… So I did. I sent him the image and I never heard back from him again since that moment.

Not long ago I saw one painting and I felt that it was very familiar to me. And then I got it – It was a copy of my photo! I did a little research on that and it seem that the guy who draw(copied) it is quite well known around… His name is Vincent Van Gogh or something… Pity that he never mentioned me and I can’t find his contact now.

This video is a comparison of both images:

What’s your opinion about the situation?

Update: explanation for people who got confused: text above is just a joke. This image is a digital recreation of the artist’s most iconic self-portraits using photography and digital retouching. The video is a comparison of a painting and my image.
