This Artist Showed How 20 Famous Historical Figures Would Look Like If They Were Alive Today
If you’re an avid history buff, you’d probably love to travel back in time and meet some of your favorite historical figures. And while that’s not really possible (at least until someone invents a time machine), artist and comic book writer Magdalena Vissagio has the next best thing.
The artist does realistic recreations of historical figures to show how they would look like if they lived in the 21st century, and it’s pretty fascinating. Check out some of her works in the gallery below, and if you want more, make sure to read our ealier articles about the works of Bas Uterwijk and Becca Saladin here and here!
