The Birth of Venus


When I found myself in Europe, taking pictures of masterworks, that I wasn't supposed to, I was tickled that my iPhones facial recognition software was trying to identify all these faces including invented characters and long-dead Dutchman. And so when I returned home I had my iPhone photos blown up and printed on canvas and then I overpainted the facial recognition rectangle on the canvases and then framed them in these authentic looking Baroque frames but they are knock-off polyurethane foam fake frames from China.
