Women in art - an amazing montage

The best use of morphing technology since Terminator 2, I’d say… :stuck_out_tongue:

Very cool!

I wish, for the sake of the art-dumb like myself, someone would make a copy with captions (artists and years).

That was freaking Gorgeous!

The music (Yo Yo Ma playing Bach’s Cello variations was perfect, too!)

FML

I loved it!

If anyone finds it on YouTube, don’t bother reading the viewer comments - it’s mostly misogynistic complaints.

Great link.

Thank you for sharing.

I’ve had this one open a few days and play it often. It’s Regina Spektor’s song Fidelity. It is beautiful.

That’s very cool.

It’s quite amazing how similar so many of those faces are, how much of a “type” there appears to be in the Western artistic tradition.

I’m betting this was an art history project, or something similar.

Very cool montage, but I think I’m somewhat revealing my geek nature when I was more interested in exactly how they were doing the morphing than with the actual series of paintings. :smiley:

Really neat!

Man! Some of those chicks were HOT!

[sup]Wait… I’m missing the point, aren’t I?[/sup]

Oh, fun quiz. I looked through the first part (my ballywick) and my impressions:
Something Byzantine or Italian 13th c or so
Leo Mad of Rocks- :01
Fra Filippo Lippi?
Leo Mona :05
Raph?
Bott-- 08
Lavinia Fontana?
Leo?
Something Venetian?
Titian or Palma or some other Venetian (can’t put my finger on it)
Titian?
?
Leo again-- Ginevra da Benci: 22
Leo, Ermine
Bellini :26
Titian?
Dürer :30
Cranach :31
Memling :33
? Italian
Holbein? :37
Pretty Leonardo-heavy, but then there’s a huge jump in chronological sequence at :39-- French 17th c? into Goya and such, but then it whips back into 16th c with El Greco and then back to Ingres. Then a lot of bland stuff (few ‘iconic’ images) until it gets interesting again around 1:40, IMO. Not strictly chronological in any case. If there’s anything in particular you want help with give a number.

Very cool! But no Girl With A Pearl Earring?

It would have been a lot cooler if it included boobies.

Just sayin’.

Very nice, but I couldn’t help thinking of Roseanne.

I’ve got you one worse. I couldn’t help thinking of my mom.

EDIT: errr… this may not look good w/ my other comment about the boobies, but um, I meant with the faces… I had the thought about boobies before I realized it was reminding me of my mom. Actually, that was my first thought before even opening the link. I was just hoping to see boobies, and instead I saw my mom. So it was kind of an unpleasant experience for me.

On further consideration… although it wouldn’t be a portrait like the others, I would’ve liked to have seen the Statue of Liberty in there.

The others aren’t all portraits- a couple of Madonnas and saints in there at least (and at least one of what looked to me was a 16th-c Italian young man).
