Amazing Recreations of Old Master's Paintings That Utilize Children as Models

"Rainier Elstermann series "Old Masters", recreates classic art staples replacing the original models with children, giving the end results a strange kind of gravitas." Amazing work and awesome talent!


"Girl with a Pearl Earring", 1665 by Johannes Vermeer


"Portrait of a Chambermaid", 1625 by Peter Paul Rubens


"Portrait of Marquise de Pompadour", 1756 by Francois Boucher
