Your Favorite Paintings "Winterized"
Posted by Kelly
To mark a record snowfall in upstate New York about this same time last year,
www.freakingnews.com
asked visitors to "winterize" a famous painting. Adding snow was a must, adding winter clothes was optional. I got a chuckle out of this "wintry mix" of altered iconic paintings. I hope you do, too.
You'll recognize, of course, the now even more icy couple from Grant Wood's
American Gothic
at left. And at right, below, you can see
La Soif (The Thirst)
by William Adolphe Bouguereau, and at left, below, you'll find it's altered counterpart,
I Triple Dog Dare Ya
.
