In the hilarious blog Museum of Selfies, classic portrait paintings are transformed into selfies with the simple addition of a hand clasping a phone. Art director Olivia Muus started the project after creating her first portrait selfie at the National Gallery of Denmark in Copenhagen. She is now accepting submissions for the project. Most of the works appear have been shot in museums, and some of the best selfies were submitted by museums.
