Fake it 'til you...

Hi, all!

I had a piece of Great Fun™ a few days ago.

Number One Wife brought in some flowers, put them into a vase
which she placed below our dinner room lamp (an Italian thing,
decorated with grapes and vine) in front of an old Dutch oil painting
on the wall.

I added a layer of yellowish “varnish” to make the fake look more
authentic…

I am quite happy with the result :slight_smile:

Have fun!

Very nice.

Be honest, everything arranged by the wife? Didn’t you help a bit with the composition :innocent:?

Lovely photo!

Ach, Gnädige Thomas,

Do I have to be honest?

Here is what the scene looked like when “untreated”:

As I said behind the curtain, your image is vintage and divine. Thanks for sharing.

Neat! Quaint, yet a bit “Dali - ish” in its perspective.

Got me looking around the house… Hmm, our stuff isn’t so interesting. :laughing:

I was going to say how dare anyone block the painting with flowers, but will sleep tonight, knowing it is a trick of perspective!

Good eye for the right crop!
