Fayoum Double Portrait (Photoshop Reconstruction)

[voceval1]

The most amazing thing about this work is that you brought them into this century, like time travelers, with such realistic clarity that they jump right out of the screen. Just left blew me away, wondering who were they, how did they live, etc.? Two well groomed young men who are now staring back at us from some unknown time. Therefore, making me a time traveler too. Thanks again for the journey!

To say the name of a departed one is to help them live again in the next life. I truly believe you have accomplished this and more with these wonderful portraits. As always, amazingly beautiful work.

@ahmedzs1.......May I suggest you take it a little easy. Anger like yours will shorten your life. Smoke a hookah and relax. Judemaris has done nothing offensive. Lighten up.

He didn't say any thing has to do with anger,he just said his opinion and his suggestion. so don't exaggerate in your reaction.

@spacecatmeetsmars999 smoking a hookah isn't going to lengthen his life either.

u changed them alot; the last change u applied made them look like saudi arabians; suggest u undo the last change.

@ahmedzs1 Saudi Arabia is only a short boat ride across the Red Sea from Egypt. If you go far enough North you don't even need a boat. Since Greece is even further away and yet had colonies in Egypt, I don't think it really matters much who they are supposed to "look like". They could be any denomination.
