Artist Inserts Disney Characters Into Renaissance and Modern Paintings, and the Results Are Masterpieces
Someone tell Disney, because they'll surely reserve a spot in the Louvre.
A photographer and illustrator, Gregory Masouras, is 26 years old and from Greece. He has been making waves in the art world after gaining attention for his manipulations of Disney princesses set against Greek landscapes.
The reason he chose Disney is that he can rely on the "liberation of adult imagination using tools that were, until now, reserved for younger audiences." This creates a fascinating blend of two worlds: the art experienced as children through Disney and the classic art encountered as adults.
Check out the amazing manipulations below—they are every bit as impressive as the originals.
