The J. Paul Getty Museum in Los Angeles challenged those who might be bored while in quarantine to recreate great works of art from the Getty online collection using three items and/or people at their home.
The response to the challenge was quite overwhelming and incredibly creative.
We challenged you to dig into Getty’s online collections and re-create artworks with objects at home … and boy did you deliver.
