25 Realistic and Awesome Celebrity Drawings
Do you know how old hand made paintings is? One thousand years old? Two thousand years old? Did they originate in the time of Jesus Christ? According to Wikipedia the first painting was drawn 32 thousand years ago. With the advent of cameras “real” photographs began to replace the traditional hand made drawings. It was good for society because not everybody was able to bear the cost of getting himself painted. It was reserved for the upper class.
One example of this fact can be found in Great Expectations. Charles Dickens remarks in the very first chapter – “As I never saw my father or my mother, and never saw any likeness of either of them (for their days were long before the days of photographs)…”
Additionally paintings took a lot of time to get completed.
But even in this digital photography age, old hand made portraits by people like Leonardo da Vinci and Pablo Picasso still enlighten and entertain us and there still are many people who prefer to get themselves portrayed instead of photographed.
Some people believe that paintings cannot depict the truth in its entirety and therefore they are of little or no import. They think a painting is just a shadow of the real world. If you think that way then think again after viewing the pictures below.
