People in glass houses… yadda yadda yadda. Whatever.
Remember when the above image did the rounds on the Internet a few months ago?
I’ve Googled the hell out of it and I can’t find the name of the artist anywhere (sorry – happy to be corrected by a more knowledgeable commenter). But hey, irrespective of the origins, let it not be said that good art can’t be stolen re-purposed for advertising purposes.
Check out this new set of print ads from Mercedes Benz, highlighting its new ‘blind spot assist’ feature.
Yawn of yawns.

While I don’t know the origins of the above image (earliest I can find is a Reddit post from last year) – the technique is much older.
The photographer Erwin Blumenfeld created a very similar shot back in 1945.

Yeah, my googling bottomed out at that Reddit post too. Good to know that the technique dates back more than fifty years (at least).
This Kateboy video has a similar technique:
That’s a great find (and a great video).
Cheers.
