Just because museums are currently closed due to the quarantine, this doesn\u2019t mean you can\u2019t enjoy art. During this challenging time, art lovers around the world have found a way to unite and stay creative: by recreating famous artworks using whatever they can find at home. A Spanish facebook group called \u201cQuearteencasa\u201d challenged their followers on social media to recreate a piece of art with different household items. Toilet paper, laptop charger, even pets were all used as props and everyone had to get creative about how they saw everyday items. This types of recreations will make you laugh, and they\u2019ll have you looking around your own home to see what you can use to recreate a masterpiece from history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here are some of our favourite recreations<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If that beard were slightly shorter, we couldn\u2019t tell the difference between them. When it comes to imitating the pose he has done pretty well. No problem with self-esteem, that\u2019s for sure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Sometimes eyes can say more than words. The facial expression and the way the women stare into the camera is exactly the same like as on the original painting. They should focus more on the context though, from my point of view it seems to be a garbage bag in the background.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

28#<\/strong> Leonardo da Vinci:<\/strong> Mona Lisa<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s not an easy task to recreate Mona Lisa\u2019s secret smile since it\u2019s the most attractive art mystery so far but they\u2019ve done a pretty good job. The perfectly shaped background also resembles the original one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

She should be a talented artist who works with things she finds at home: straw hat, gloves and a pair of shower caps. Even though flowers seems a bit weird but at least now we know that it\u2019s possible to use shower caps and gloves in this way too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Seems like the entire family was involved in the recreation of this masterpiece. They were definitely having a lot of fun during the procedure. But where is the church from the background?<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

25# Jan Vermeer:<\/strong> The Milkmaid<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Even though they used coffee instead of milk it didn\u2019t affect the outcome at all. But we noticed that there are not enough cookies in the second one, probably the hard work made them incredibly hungry. The real conclusion of this picture is: kitchen towel can be used in many different ways, even as a hat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

This picture has such a peaceful atmosphere and the remake captures this feeling as well as we would expect it to. Though she should pay more attention to the dress because tablecloths aren\u2019t particularly made for this purpose.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

We can see crisps instead of melon and Jagermeister instead of a flusk, interesting composition. The modern egg looks a bit weird too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

22# African women<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Regardless of the skin colour of the model this picture has a wonderfully composed harmony. Everything from jewellery to facial expression represents the beauty of art.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

We can\u2019t tell which one is the original at first blink, can you? It is so well made, that even Rafal Olbinski would be shocked. It is so accurate and detailed that they look exactly the same.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

When we take a look at this masterpiece, words are pointless. It couldn\u2019t be recreated any better than that. The phone within the box is a brilliant solution in addition. We left with only one question: what is going on in the original painting?<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

We see a really nice try here but please pay more attention to the shoes next time: those slippers don\u2019t give us the impression that we are at a wedding. But all together it\u2019s a nice attempt to recreate the original one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s such a colourful and well detailed picture, from clothing to jewellery except for one small thing: the plant on her head. Definitely not the same type of plant \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

If we look at the facial expression and the posture, we are not completely sure this isn\u2019t the same man. But in art, the balance of light and shadow is crucial so they should pay more attention to it and it\u2019s gonna the best remake of art history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Seems as if she got a little older since the original painting, but its not a surprise as centuries passed by. They did however a great job with the palette.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Maybe this is the proper way of kissing during a pandemic but let\u2019s face it, it\u2019s not as romantic as the good old way. This picture provides a new perspective on social distancing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s nice to know you just need some bed sheets and a towel as a cloak and you can be the Grand Duke of Tuscany. I can\u2019t repeat myself enough to pay attention to the background because in this case it\u2019s completely different.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

The light-dark contrast and the beautiful expression of the face that makes this picture so unique even though the eyes of the women are open on the original one. That\u2019s the way masterpiece should be recreated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

I suppose it was not so difficult to find a mask these days and use it as part of a scarf. But the postures of the women in the window aren\u2019t exactly the same.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

She seems to have found a fur which is better than the original. Although the composition is very detailed, I still have a feeling that someone in the picture wasn\u2019t so happy with the idea. I suppose the cat has a different opinion about art than most of us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

What a great idea to use a broom and a kitchen pot and turn them into a greek helmet. They\u2019ve clearly got the point of this whole challenge: make the most out of your household items.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

I don\u2019t know what her mother said, when she saw the tent in the middle of the room, but she must understand that this is the best way to represent the size of skirts of the 17th century when this painting was created.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

The original paintings of Piet Mondrian represents the underlying structure of reality. We just have to find out next, what does the second picture represents? The underlying structure of a luggage?<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

When we\u2019re looking for something we\u2019ve lost, we\u2019re probably look the same as this women on the picture. Only the tropical storm missing from that picture, otherwise they did what they could to recreate the original painting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

The Iranian painter\u2019s favorite subjects for her portraits are women. The faces of women on her paintings are very expressive and in this case they nailed the challenge to portraying the original painting’s atmosphere. Last but not least this crone is a masterpiece.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Instead of a bird eating a man, he\u2019s eating a cat. Bosch would love it though as he was surrealistic before anyone else. However I don’t think poor kitties care about the opinion of Bosch, they just want to get out of the scene.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

The portrait of Goliath’s severed head, held by his executioner was recreated with such attention to details that we can say its almost perfect. They did a scarily accurate job.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
