Mum Recreates Iconic Artworks Using Her Children As Models

Like most parents Lucie Kruta loved capturing pictures of her children as they grew up, but one fairly unremarkable snapshot of her daughter inspired her to create an entire photo-series that brings classic works of art to life. And the results are absolutely incredible! 

Taking a photo of her baby daughter in her new dress, Lucie noticed she looked like a girl from an Edouard Manet painting. She had a light-bulb moment to create a whole series of pictures inspired by famous art. In the last five years Lucie has created over 280 famous paintings impersonations all starring her friends and family.

And the pictures aren’t just a way of channeling her creativity, Lucie also says they help her bond with her children and turn picture taking into a family activity.

We’ve picked some of our favourite shots below, but to view more of Lucie’s visual creations, take a look at her website or Facebook page.
