Artist Imagines What Napoleon Could Look Like in a Realistic 3D Portrait
Check out a new work by Ivailo Ivanov.
3D Artist Ivailo Ivanov, specializing in creating realistic digital portraits, imagined what Napoleon Bonaparte could look like, creating a realistic 3D portrait of the historical figure.
The artist explained that at the time of the emperor's life, there were no cameras, and the appearance of the politician could only be seen on the portraits, which, upon first look, don't have that much in common with each other. The creator analyzed the descriptions of Napoleon's appearance and his portraits, creating a realistic depiction of what he could look like, "without idealizing it, without making him look like what we think an emperor or a great leader should necessarily be."
