Random Picture Thread Vers.4

Is that a selfie of the artist in the mirror?

 

Its the artist, Jan van Eyck, dated 1434.

 

I didn't realise that that portrait contained such intricate images, incredible

 

It's not a huge picture either: 82 cm high by 60 cm wide. The mirror on the back wall is only about 5" wide on the canvas yet it's a detailed picture within a picture. The brush used must have been just a single hair.

 

Selfie...

I once watched an amazing documentary which went through all the details of that painting and another similar one.

 

Chicken Market Bridge, built 1628 by Dutch East India Company in Batavia (Jakarta).

 

Ouch

 

Heart-breaking for somebody.

That is fabulous & correct me if I'm wrong, but it's a 1968 Chrysler 300 convertible.

Here's the 2008 version...

 

Pig soup modification

 

very close, it's 1966 - check out the "sharks gills" which disappeared on the '67.
