Shot in 2002 by Patrick Demarchelier for Harper’s Bazaar, here’s another editorial that takes its hints from art and recreates a slew of paintings both modern and renaissance alike. Entitled Artistic License it dips into a handful of diverse painters, like Klimt, Warhol, Lichenstein, Botticelli and many more. As always I’ve included the originals so you can compare.
Lips (Heure de l’Observatoire) by Man Ray, 1966


Study for the homage to the square: beaming by Josef Albers, 1963


The swing by Jean-Honoré Fragonard, 1767


Jeanne Hebuterne’s Portrait by Amedeo Modigliani, 1918

Les demoiselles d’Avignon by Pablo Picasso, 1907


Pink Panther by Jeff Koons (1988)


At the Moulin Rouge by Toulouse Lautrec, 1892-1895


Trois Danseuses a la Classe de Danse by Edgar Degas, 1890-1900)


Oh, Jeff.. I Love You, Too.. But by Roy Lichtenstein, 1964

That was great, thanks! I’ve never seen most of these, what a treat. I especially love Erin O’Connor as the Modigliani and Mariacarla as the Degas.
