Portraits

The Hermitage Museum in Amsterdam does not have only Russian art items. 
In the basement are some huge portraits of old Dutch masters. This time they made a funny twist to put some photo portraits of wellknown Dutch people between the paintings, dressed in the costumes of a historical person.

Ruud Gullit was a famous professional footballer as you can read here.

  3. How fun! I stayed at a hotel in Seattle last year that had portraits of famous people from Seattle dressed like this. It was fun to see.

  6. What a clever idea. I think it makes you examine the paintings/photos more closely looking at the clothing

  8. Fun to dress up as another person....and it made it more enjoyable for the patrons. I dressed in costume once for a party. We were supposed to dress like a presidents wife. I tried to look like Jackie Kennedy, but folks thought that I was Mamie Eisenhower ☹️
