It’s into this scenario that photojournalist Márton Neményi inserts characters from great works of art. They fit in remarkably well, with their tendency to underdress and an air of managed exhaustion.

1. Michelangelo – Creation Of Adam (1505-12)

2. Eugène Delacroix – Liberty Leading The People (1830)

3. Leonardo Da Vinci – Mona Lisa (1503-19)

4. Grant Wood – American Gothic (1930)

5. Botticelli – Venus (Late 15th Century)

6. Francesco Hayez – The Kiss (1859)

7. Edgar Degas – Dancers (1884–85)

8. Peter Paul Rubens – Perseus Freeing Andromeda (1638)

9. Jean Auguste Dominique Ingres – Countess D’haussonville (1845)

10. Julio Romero De Torres – The Fortune Telling (1922)

11. Fausto Zonaro – Young Girl Carrying A Pumpkin (1889)

John Riley – Bridget Holmes (1685)
