Gloriously photographed right? Glorious yes. Photograph no.
It’s actually a hand-draw portrait, which took artist Samuel Silva 30 hours to complete. It’s based on this image originally taken by Russian photographer Kristina Tararina - not that you can really tell the difference…
What’s even more unbelievable is that Samuel he considers drawing as just a “hobby” (he’s actually an attorney in Portugal.) but on this evidence maybe he should switch profession?
You can see and appreciate more of his skilful work here.
