Rainer Elstermann is a Berlin commercial and fine art photographer who did this series he calls the “Old Masters” (how about that for a title, huh?) and recreates these art historical paintings with… children. What he has come up with is a 21st century spin on classical art. It’s fun.
Have a great Saturday.

John, where do find this stuff? Great! BTW, I'm into PP Reubens- one of the greats in art history-
Amazing body of work...WOW!
Thanks Colin and Red: Yep, it's pretty amazing, I agree. I find things by following threads into deep internet space. Like getting lost in a cave. Hopefully, when I emerge I have something worthy for my blog for people like you. Since there's no money in this—I do appreciate your comments. That's why I keep going.
!!!
Loved it, John!
Greetings :)
The clothing reproductions are really extraordinary!
