Without art, the World would be a very boring place to live in, because according to us, art is one of the most important things today, and as time goes by, it gets even more and more appreciated.

If you are an artist today, it means that you are an open minded person who can understand everything, who has no limits in art as well in life too, and you must love those kid of people, because even if you don’t, they will never care – definition for happiness.

Artists are one of the smartest people in the World because not everyone can be a musician, painter, writer, designer, sculpture creator from different material or jewelry maker, which is very appreciated these days, because people see handmade jewelry like something more valuable than the one made in factories.

We couldn’t decide which kind of art to represent you today, so we’ve decided to make a collection from different art in different forms that you will admire for sure. This collection is some kind of different art you haven’t seen before, so scroll down and enjoy!

Swiss-Italian photographer Christian Tagliavini created the magnificent portrait series called 1503.

Why 1503? Because it was the birth year of Agnolo Bronzino, who was an Italian court painter for the Medici family in Florence. Christian Tagliavini took amazing photos, which are amazingly similar to Renaissance oil paintings. It is very hard to notice the difference, but it is possible, if you look closely. Exaggerated necks, stylized outfits, translucent skin- all these details emphasize the modernity of the work. Pale, unsaturated tones of printed photos also make them feel more contemporary.
