In a modern-day twist on Arcimboldo's apple- and turnip-faced people, artist Ju Duoqi has recreated a number of iconic paintings in the greenest of mediums...vegetables.
There's Mona Lisa, dressed in folds of deep green kelp, her tofu noodle hair hanging down over her white rice face. And there's Van Gogh's iconic self portrait, its frenetic lines rendered with vari-colored snippets of leek. The melting-faced horror of Munch's The Scream is represented by psychedically twisted slices of carrot and sweet potato. The goulishly curious medical students in Rembrandt's The Anatomy Lesson have had their faces replaced with bulbous knobs of pickled cabbage; the cadaver is, cleverly, a hollowed-out squash filled with beans. Warhol's Marilyn Monroe gets the cabbage treatment too, Picasso's The Dream is a vision in tofu, and David's Napoleon Crossing the Alps looks ever-so-slightly less noble on a potato steed.
