Chris and Francisco are employees of Squarespace, a website building company with offices in New York City. While I’m sure they do great work for the company, it’s what they do when they’re not doing their jobs that has captured so many people’s attention. During what I’ll have to assume is their lunch break (isn’t that right, guys?), the two recreate some of the most famous paintings the world has ever known.
Napoleon Crossing the Alps – Jacques-Louis David
David with the Head of Goliath by Caravaggio
Napoleon Crossing the Alps – Jacques-Louis David
The Nightmare by Henry Fuseli
Girl with the Pearl Earring by Johannes Vermeer
Two Ballet Dancers by Edgar Degas
The Son of Man by Rene Magritte
The Old Guitarist by Pablo Picasso

What’s perhaps most impressive about Chris and Francisco’s versions of these well-known works, besides the fact that they haven’t gotten in trouble yet, is that they’re done using only things that can be found around the office and all editing most be done on a smart phone.
