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
Have fun!

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

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!
