Renaissance Disney Princesses Belong In A Museum

by Brianna Wiest

As we all know, one of the things we Millennials are most passionate about is artwork wherein our favorite Disney princesses are reimagined into a new animation or time period, and these Renaissance Disney princesses are no exception. The images were created by Thunyamon Charoensuttikul, a Thai graphic design student, for a special class project. Needless to say, the talent here is extraordinary, and you'll be amped to see her combine the two things she loves most: time period pieces, and of course, Disney!

For those of you who are history junkies and/or lovers of all things Disney-related, these will totally amaze you. They're done in such a way that they really do look like a mock up of a da Vinci or something. If you look closely, you can see the way the edges of their noses were created, or how the backgrounds are subtle and often akin to what you'd see in a real classic portrait. It takes a phenomenal amount of skill to be able to recreate something so precise, and I'm nothing if not in awe.

Check out a few of the pieces below, and see what all the fuss is about. If you're super interested, check out more of the artist's work here, or follow her on Instagram. If we had to take a guess, we'd say there are probably only more incredible things destined to come from some talent like this... talk about Disney levels of magical!

Cinderella

Even the way she's clutching her shoe is perfect for the time period!

Ariel

We appreciate the time-appropriate design of the fork-comb, too.

Belle

Wait, that background looks like it could be in an *actual* Renaissance portrait.

Mulan

If you look pretty closely, you'll see that the artistry of the Great Wall behind her is pretty incredible (and precise!).

Pocahontas

Pocahontas + Renaissance isn't something you'd think would go together, yet somehow, it just works.
