It would be hard to out do this with today's tools |
Vermeer (17th century) is also pretty good and they didn't have cameras at the time (well, they did have camera-like things perhaps, like the camera obscura):

Wooooooow, the first one is really amazing! I don't know a good "realistic" painting... |
We're talking "most realistic painting", not just "most realistic portrait".
My vote goes to Julian Beever's art. He draws with chalk on a flat surface, but preduces a phenominal 3D effect.
This work, for example, is drawn on a car park but makes it look like someone has dug a hole and found an ancient mosaic: http://users.skynet.be/J.Beever/images/mosaic.jpg
His Vaio Laptop is great too: http://users.skynet.be/J.Beever/images/portab3.jpg

>>Vermeer (17th century) is also pretty good and they didn't have cameras at the time I'm not sure the Search-Engines-Web.com's painter needed a camera too ;) I have to say that is a good work. The question is: why? To spend 70 hours for something which will hit Digg's home page for 10 minutes, that is Art of 21st century :-/ |
