Seriously, one of the coolest videos I've seen on UA-cam. If they played that on the first day of history class, the kids would be more likely to relate to those historical figures, and learn a great deal more.
My thoughts exactly as I was watching, how different history classes would be with these pictures showing the people in a more realistic way. Excellent video.👍
Not just kids! The teachers who taught history classes at the school I attended until graduation seemed to focus on memorizing dates and names. It wasn't until I attended college that history lessons actually became more interesting, so students could actually understand its impact on our lives, culture, the whole world.
PhD in history here. This is an exciting video because it really humanizes these people. It's interesting how normal they look, and how difficult it is to relate to the historical paintings. For instance, the wives of Henry VIII all look very attractive now, while in their portraits it's hard to appreciate their beauty. I think I like Charles II as a rock star best. He basically WAS a rock star.
It's poignant seeing them brought to life for a few minutes, Machiavelli still looks like he's planning something and Lady Jane Grey looks like a thoughtful teenager. Their faces are full of character and intelligence, unlike the botoxed, plumped faces of some famous people.
Yeah, but the problem is that they still have those exagerated features that were made with intention by painters back then. Even modern painters will exagerate with certain features that they find interesting.
Even more startling than Louis XIV being imagined as a punk rocker in a leather tank top, is having the Parisian cityscape in the background [complete with the Eiffel Tower built 174 years after his death]. Having endured scary times of rioting in the city as a child, Louis would always loathe Paris and spend as little time as possible there- which is WHY he built the gigantic Versailles Palace on its outskirts and ran all of France from there instead of its official capital!
I descend from Louis XVI,(and all the French Kings back to Charlemagne in the year 804,) from the mixing of Louis XVI blood with that of a "woman of the night" in Louis's time. A baby momma, basically. So we descend from ½ Royal blood and ½ baby momma blood. True Story! Vive La France!
@@Paul-zz8lu Are you sure it wasn't Louis XIV [14th]? He was rather randy [even for a king who wasn't above commanding women he fancied fulfill his desires]. As for Louis XVI [16th], he was the first married French king in quite a few centuries to have had no known mistresses (which Marie Antoinette liked to gloat about). .Of course, if one traces back virtually ANYones genealogy far back enough, one can find kings as well as commoners [and yes, that DOES include the Windsors]!
I have a theory: There are about a few dozen face types in every "race". Face types also overlap between races, so you can see similar features in faces between different races, just coloured differently and with minor differences. All 100 billion of us humans who ever lived have can be classified into these. I'm not sure this applies to early humans or other members of the homo genus. They may have their own face types.
how do you verify this? Just because a contemporary artist edited these images it does not validate 'how young they were...'. Your realization is backed up by this artistic video, says a lot about your historical intelligence.
Most people lived to about 35 ... there weren't good medical treatment methods or medicine...so you can understand that the ones that lived longer were probably rich or well taken care of by their families.
This is so well done. I particularly love seeing my favorite composers come to life -- Vivaldi, Mozart, Beethoven -- capturing the mad rebel genius in modern terms.
There is no way that I could pick my favorite! I absolutely love how they looked as Modern people! Such a great job with the styling of the makeup, hair, and clothes!
?? It's definitely great stuff but superimposing the faces onto head and clothed body images already there isn't 'styling', lol. The choice of setting / clothes models is good though.
I could not stop watching until the end. Outstanding work in programming these. I liked how the original transitioned into the modern and then back again.
The original paintings were really flattering to begin with, and the modernization added a second level of flattering. I wonder what they actually looked like in real life.
I am impresses by the clothing and hair styles you picked. It's easier to see what they looked like because their antique ensembles don't overshadow their faces. I enjoyed the fact Bach looks like an aging hippie. To a lesser extend Ben Franklin does too. Thanks and Cheers! This was fun,
umm *No.* wearing modern clothing and having waxed hair *does not relate* to anything great of the actual historical figures. If anything, it *dehumanizes* them by making them appear simpy, fit for modern day repulsive gen.
This is like traveling back in time and seeing the real faces of all these historical people. I like them alll, particularly Anne of Cleaves, nothing like old king Henry described her. Thank you for your excellent work.
I’ve always wondered about historical figures, how they looked in real life. Formal paintings don’t always capture their essence. Marie Antoinette still looks a bit of a silly young girl (or, more charitably, inexperienced), and Mary I still looks a bit mental. All of them are much more relatable this way-well done!
I absolutely loved them all. It's hard to choose a favorite. Maybe Joan of Arc? The change from their portraits is stunning. I watched several times. Fascinating. Everything is perfect. The accessories, clothing, background, hair, makeup, lighting, all impeccable. Thank you for all the work you do. You should get an award!
I was glad to see Joan of Arc since no portrait of her exists, images and sculptures of her are due to imagination. What we know of her comes from words of contemporaries, like she wore a red dress when she met the king to be. Not bad for someone who tiilled the fields and tended to the livestock in her father's farm. Very religious, she often took a breather to pray.
It's so amazing and stunning to see people in the historical class became alive again with now-a-day photograph technology...thank you for this masterpiece VDO Clip..👍👍👍
Yes I have always thought the Nightingale portrait was awful, she appeared ill and depressed but this enhancement is wonderful . And Henry VIII wow! he looks like a rock star.
This one was cool because it took what they were wearing and modernized it into something from today. I've seen a lot of these where they keep the face the same but change everything else and this definitely added to the realization. By far the best one I've seen!
Vald the Impaler, put a guitar in his hands and he looks like a rock star. Catherine the Great looks like a very stern secretary, nothing gets by her. I would date half these men. Mystery Scoop...you are the best!
WOW! This is truly something amazing! I can't take my eyes off of how exceptionally these famous figures from the past would look in today's world! It's like witnessing history come alive in a whole new dimension!
Julius Caesar looks like an accountant, Nefertiti like a top model, Vlad like a hippy from the early 70s, Leonardo da Vinci like a homeless person, King Charles II like Bryan May of Queen, Newton like a young university researcher, Jane Austeen like an employee in a large company, Queen Victoria as a head nurse.
Tasty, yet Tasteful. Definitely makes the portraits become human beings instead of "Icons." I've spent a lot of time working with 3D software, but I'm a cartoonist, not a portrait artist. These "reconstructions" are satisfyingly _Living_ and relaxed, like candid photos, not like stiff formal portraits. Thanks for the post. Helps give a bit more COMFORTABLE *_handle_* on history. Holy Cow. Not supposed to get feelings like that for historical figures. One feels Transported...........
Humanize them? Just because slick hair and fashionable suits is analogous with your narcissistic desires driven by this contemporary hedonistic/boar gen, it *does not* make these portraits appear more humanly; if anything it tarnishes them, hence *dehumanizing* them; for in the icons, through their abstract, one can 'imagine' the greatness of these historical figures rather than degrade them to contemporary day utter fools.
I'm a professional, photographer and video maker. I love this program you just showed. I wished I could learn how to do it myself. I could do that with my own family who has passed away. To preserve a piece of history that could be shared with my great-nieces and nephews for generations to come. Thank you to everyone who worked on this program in this project. Thank you all for doing that it's an amazing piece of work. May God be with all of us in this world amen.
If case you didnt know "May the force be with you" is not taken from Star War movies, its from the satanists. So what they say is:: "May the powers of the Satan be with you"
Each time I see the modern Rembrandt rendering, I see the actor Maurice Bénichou who played M. Bretodeau in Amélie (my favorite film). It makes me smile.
I think this is one of the best UA-cam videos I’ve ever seen. The lighting, hair, fashion and transformation is flawless. This sticks are to a whole new level to me.
This is why I enjoy your wonderful videos! You take these historical people and put them in modern times and make it rock! I can see them as real modern people! I like all the modern renditions! Bravo!!!!👏👍❤️❤️
I wonder if they could do this with classic literature characters? It would be interesting to see modern renditions of well-loved characters such as Robin Hood, Jean Valjean, Quasimodo, Lemuel Gulliver, Don Quixote, Victor Frankenstein, Huckleberry Finn, Peter Pan, Dorothy, and I could go on for hours.
Wow. This is the best video of it's kind I've seen yet. Some of the original likenesses of these people or the individuals, themselves have always seemed kind of odd looking to begin with (ie: Abraham Lincoln, Joan of Arc, Nefertiti) and I kept thinking, "There's no way they're going to be able to pull this one off... " but they nailed it every time! I loved Mona Lisa and Thomas Jefferson but I think my favorite was Henry VIII. The transition sequencing was also spectacular. Thank you!
I'm sure the original artists took at least a few liberties with the paintings/busts (especially when it pertains to powerful ancient historical figures that could have you executed if they're displeased) etc. - this video basically just textures over/pastes the original heads/busts over AI generated/retrieved pictures of bodies when it's very likely the real people did not look like this.
@@yellowblanka6058 Yeah, I'm sure they didn't but this at least gives us an idea of what they might look like to us. I really like the way the artist put contemporary clothes and hairstyles on them
So interesting. I was waiting for you to use a modern photo of Brian May to update the portrait of Isaac Newton. The resemblance between them has been noted many times, partly because it's really uncanny. The portrait of Stalin was especially surprising. I guess it's easier to understand now how he was able to cause so much trouble.
Seeing these historical characters looking like modern day people, reminds you that they were real flesh and blood people, which considering the things many of them did, is a scary thought.
It makes me wonder if 50 years from now someone takes a picture of me and re-created it back to life. Would it look like me, or would it look like a version me? It’s fascinating. I love these shows !
Absolutely exquisite. One of the most well done videos on UA-cam. There were many moments of seeing the actual vulnerability of people usually seen as powerful in history books.
Great video. I am suprised how much younger some of them look in modern outfits. Loved how you made Charles Darwin look. In the green, probebly finding insperation for his "Origin of Species".
I fully agree. I admit heartily disliking Henry Vlll 's mean little mouth in that slab of a face as he aged, but his reputation of being a handsome young man is deserved.
Amazing video! I was so moved! It was like finally getting to meet these enigmatic characters of times bygone and discover that they were "just" people.
According to the updated version, I notice a resemblance with several people living among us: French actors Anais Demoustier as Joan of Arc, Isabelle Huppert as Catherine of Aragon, Ludivine Sagnier as Anne de Cleves. The younger Sting looks like Antonio Vivaldi and Florence Nightingale as Catherina Zeta Jones.
@13Kormoran sauf qu'il n'existe aucun portrait de Jeanne d' Arc ! Même si en effet Anais Demoustiers ressemble bien à l"image de la vidéo (bien vu ! ) Vos autres associations sont elles aussi bien vues, d"ailleurs !
Florence Nightingale was amazing . A few others were beauties. Several guys looked handsome, Caesar looked like a business man. Would be neat to go back in time, or see a modern day person of them.
what great people have come before us, how humbling to just see the lineup of now long past celebrities, who'll never be forgotten for the great contributions that have helped pave the way to our ever-advancing civilization!
I never knew that so many of our modern celebrities are actually reincarnated historical figures: 1:37 Christopher Columbus, aka Dan Blocker 2:53 Henry VIII has been reincarnated as James Corden? 3:07 Catherine of Aragon came back as Hayley Westenra 3:28 Jane Seymour didn't die, she just changed her name to Gwyneth Paltrow 4:04 Catherine Parr and Susan Sarandon: Switched at birth? 5:30 Rembrandt and Jerry Stiller: Two great artists, gone too soon 5:37 Queen Anne = Wynona Ryder 7:10 Dick Cavett was really Thomas Jefferson? Who knew? 7:40 The great composers, starring young Brendan Fraser as Mozart and Peter Falk as Beethoven 8:00 Marie Antoinette came back as a young Maggie Smith 8:58: Abraham Lincoln is... Abraham Lincoln. I mean, really, there's nobody else he COULD look like. 9:10 Tonight, Zendaya stars as Flo Nightingale, RN 9:40 The part of Young Stalin will be played by Kevin Jonas
@@CorazonMexicaPretty good. Nobody mentioned Lorne Greene (Ben Cartwright) for Beethoven. BTW, seems that a lot of prominent people had long noses back then. There were many different portrait artists.
Which rendition did you like most? Leave your comments below, plus who would you like to see next! Thank you!
Stalin and Mozart look like romance book cover models!! Smoking HOT! LOL
King Charles II rocks 🎸😅!
@@CobiewithaK he certainly did!
@@franckorphanos2998I felt a wave of sadness seeing Joan of Arc as well, knowing that she was so young when she died, burnt at the stake 😢

It's poignant seeing them brought to life for a few minutes, Machiavelli still looks like he's planning something and Lady Jane Grey looks like a thoughtful teenager.
Their faces are full of character and intelligence, unlike the botoxed, plumped faces of some famous people.
Ironic, because most royals were uneducated and lazy, as well as overweight, since that was a sign of wealth.
Yeah, but the problem is that they still have those exagerated features that were made with intention by painters back then.
Even modern painters will exagerate with certain features that they find interesting.
I was hoping to see more realistic faces.
Nicolo Machiavelli looks like he'd be one of the guys with a show on Fox News, or at least a regular guest on Kudlow or Gutfeld...
You just hit on my biggest pet peeve with that last sentence.
THIS IS BRILLIANT! You've humanized and made all of those people from the past relevant. Thanks!
It's amazing what adding eyebrows to some of the women will do.
I couldn't stop watching; this is fascinating to see them brought to life from old world portraits.

Maybe you did. I know I will get hit hard for saying this.... Past lives? You never know. Could be possible.
Totally agree with you.. Love these photos.
It's genetics. Most of these people either had kids or had family members who had kids. They passed their appearance on to future generations.
Amazing! And it makes you realize just how young all of them were at the peak of their popularity

Absolutely fantastic. The artwork, the editing, the music. You hit it on the head. Thank you so much for this!❤
Florence Nightingale is clearly the hottest one in the group. She is stunning.
She is hot to trot, it's true!
OMG this was amazing 😮 thank you! You create what we imagine and connect the future and the past making history accessible to everyone 🎉
Fabulous in every way. Brings them alive and makes them more reachable. Brilliant! 🌠
Akhenaten looks a lot more normal when you "see him in the flesh" so to speak. He always looks like he's an alien or something with his busts/murals.
Vivaldi!! He's reincarnated as Ed Sheeran!!😂😆❤💖💗👍👍👍👍
I thought that too.
George Frideric Handel is SAM SMITH
So interesting. I was waiting for you to use a modern photo of Brian May to update the portrait of Isaac Newton. The resemblance between them has been noted many times, partly because it's really uncanny. The portrait of Stalin was especially surprising. I guess it's easier to understand now how he was able to cause so much trouble.
I think Charles II took the Brain May mantle 😂 He definitely looked the Rocker part.
Yes I remember seeing him posting fan posts on Instagram
Brian May is Sir Issac Newton, he discovered the philosopher's stone and used it.
Keep it quiet.
@@jeffcarroll6553 I know! Are we the only ones who have noticed that you never see the two of them together?
@@snowmonster42 😄📛 release no more information, you never know what you might set in motion.
I’m almost in tears. It’s like history is coming to life right in front of my eyes!
Seeing these historical characters looking like modern day people, reminds you that they were real flesh and blood people, which considering the things many of them did, is a scary thought.
Handel and Bach. I would listen too them for DAYS while doing art. INCREDIBLE. Your inspiration of such a artistic new event.
It makes me wonder if 50 years from now someone takes a picture of me and re-created it back to life. Would it look like me, or would it look like a version me? It’s fascinating. I love these shows !
What a beautiful work! Some of them took me to tears.
Just amazing work!! Well done!!
Brilliant work! A walk through history
Florence Nightingale with her false tan is accurate. Charles II looks like Brian May of Queen!
Love seeing historical figures 'modernized' so it creates a stronger connection with us today. Also love the music.
Absolutely exquisite. One of the most well done videos on UA-cam. There were many moments of seeing the actual vulnerability of people usually seen as powerful in history books.
Great video. I am suprised how much younger some of them look in modern outfits. Loved how you made Charles Darwin look. In the green, probebly finding insperation for his "Origin of Species".
Henry v111 was the most remarkable to me, seen as a present day young man, for reasons I can't quite explain. The whole video was captivating. 10/10.
The music made it.
I fully agree. I admit heartily disliking Henry Vlll 's mean little mouth in that slab of a face as he aged, but his reputation of being a handsome young man is deserved.
Boy, Florence Nightingale looks just beautiful.
That's really intense. 👌
The prettiest is "Florence Nightingale".
Catherine Zeta Jones
She could nurse me anytime!
Totally agree
Amazing video! I was so moved! It was like finally getting to meet these enigmatic characters of times bygone and discover that they were "just" people.
According to the updated version, I notice a resemblance with several people living among us: French actors Anais Demoustier as Joan of Arc, Isabelle Huppert as Catherine of Aragon, Ludivine Sagnier as Anne de Cleves. The younger Sting looks like Antonio Vivaldi and Florence Nightingale as Catherina Zeta Jones.
Charles II almost turned into Frank Zappa!
@13Kormoran sauf qu'il n'existe aucun portrait de Jeanne d' Arc ! Même si en effet Anais Demoustiers ressemble bien à l"image de la vidéo (bien vu ! ) Vos autres associations sont elles aussi bien vues, d"ailleurs !
and Ed Sheeran as Antonio Vivaldi...
Yes I'm younger then ludivine but I would Marry her and Anne of Cleves
Florence Nightingale was amazing . A few others were beauties. Several guys looked handsome, Caesar looked like a business man. Would be neat to go back in time, or see a modern day person of them.
Interesting how Flo Nightingales breast swell to 2024 proportions as per historical accuracy.
Florence Nightengale looking absolutely smashing. 🥰 I can also see why Benjamen Franklin was such a ladies' man. 😂
Florence looked gorgeous.
Florence..she scrubbed the Floors in Crimea...Dedicated defined..
She has bigger boobs now than yet
The today version has bigger boobs, bigger eyes, and a thiner nose. Of course she is prettier than yet.
I like to think these people really looked like this, because the artwork in a lot of cases, makes them look unpleasant. Absolutely love your work.
Willem Dafoe can play Michelangelo and Adrien Brody can play King Henry VII, their resemblances are quite remarkable.
I swear I saw Willem Dafoe as soon as the photo popped up too!!
No. 1: Isaac Newton 👀 = brains and good looks.
Honorable mention for Charles II Stuart and Vlad Tepes.
Queen Anne wowed me the most. In her modern portrait she was beautiful
I thought she was black
Superbly done!
This was very moving and emotional for me. I felt like I knew many of these people. Well done!
Amazing job - Thank you very much!
what great people have come before us, how humbling to just see the lineup of now long past celebrities, who'll never be forgotten for the great contributions that have helped pave the way to our ever-advancing civilization!
this video is INCREDIBLE, thank you!!
This was awesome! Thank you for including some of the great composers in here! Loved the Vivaldi rendition.
I never knew that so many of our modern celebrities are actually reincarnated historical figures:
1:37 Christopher Columbus, aka Dan Blocker
2:53 Henry VIII has been reincarnated as James Corden?
3:07 Catherine of Aragon came back as Hayley Westenra
3:28 Jane Seymour didn't die, she just changed her name to Gwyneth Paltrow
4:04 Catherine Parr and Susan Sarandon: Switched at birth?
5:30 Rembrandt and Jerry Stiller: Two great artists, gone too soon
5:37 Queen Anne = Wynona Ryder
7:10 Dick Cavett was really Thomas Jefferson? Who knew?
7:40 The great composers, starring young Brendan Fraser as Mozart and Peter Falk as Beethoven
8:00 Marie Antoinette came back as a young Maggie Smith
8:58: Abraham Lincoln is... Abraham Lincoln. I mean, really, there's nobody else he COULD look like.
9:10 Tonight, Zendaya stars as Flo Nightingale, RN
9:40 The part of Young Stalin will be played by Kevin Jonas
And William Dafoe as Michelangelo
Stalin maybe Keanu Reeves, he looks like John Wick
You forgot Greta Thunberg as Mary I.
@@CorazonMexicaPretty good. Nobody mentioned Lorne Greene (Ben Cartwright) for Beethoven. BTW, seems that a lot of prominent people had long noses back then. There were many different portrait artists.
08:35 Jim Carrey
Unreal, this is one of the best video's I've seen. Well done!
MAGNIFIQUE!!!
The clothing is exhilarating....
the hair marvelous and befitting each persona.
Excellent rendition.
Exciting ! Thxs Mystery Scoop 👍
