“The Ideal Drinking Companion”: the artist moved Pablo Picasso’s “Absinthe Drinker” to other paintings (19 photos)

"The Absinthe Drinker" is a famous painting by Pablo Picasso. In it we see a thoughtful lady in a cafe. She sits at a table, there is absinthe and a glass in front of her, and the color of the woman’s dress is the same as the bottle of the drink. It would seem a trivial scene, but if you look deeper, you can discern a feeling of rejection and loneliness among the crowd. But there are also those who see this as an excellent reason to uncover Photoshop. The artist Andrei Sikorsky decided that “The Absinthe Lover” would fit perfectly into many paintings. And so it happened. The “absinthe lover” turned out to be an ideal drinking companion.
