tiffany, such a lovely thread!

my contribution is so-la-la but mr.lagerfeld stated he was inspired by overbeck's painting 'italia and germania' for the recent german amica cover with monica bellucci and julia stegner:

the cover from www.hubert-burda-media.com

the original painting from www-rcf.usc.edu/

[tiffany]

^ Those are so incredible, thankyou for posting them!!!! Especially the Mona Lisaesque Yves Saint Laurent ad, she evokes exactly the kind of haunting emotions as Da Vinci's original with the smirk and the quiet poise

 

[kate_is_goddess]

gosh, those kate-pics are gorgeous and the comparisons are amazing! The photography certainly had that in mind.

 

[manette]

great pictures miss.dipstick!

this comparison isn't as good but this renaissance painting reminds me a bit of gemma's hermes ads.
