The (masked) girl with a pearl earring

Hi everyone ! I started a brand new series around the iconic portraits, but during lockdown times !

The challenge is double, respect the original masterpiece (colors, light), and being forced to only use what we had at home !

Here, a first pick, with "The (masked) girl with a pearl earring", initially by Johannes Vermeer.

All CC are welcome (and expected) !

While I enjoy the execution, im not sure this works. I think maybe the name of the series is what is causing discord. You have combined 2 very time distinct images. To call them Timeless is a polar opposite of what the picture tells you. It speaks volumes in time.

I totally understand what you mean, maybe the title ain’t that clever, I meant that the initial portraits are timeless, but it doesn’t mean mine is ! Maybe « Masked icons » should fit it better, what do you think ? Thanks for the honest and complete feedback !

Im not sure honestly! I just new that name took away from your execution. Play with it, see how you feel.

Wonderful, timely image. Nicely done!
