Just asking… AI did this, right?

[–] TehBamski@lemmy.world 5 points 5 days ago (1 children)

I wondered the same thing before posting.

I used https://isgen.ai/ai-image-detector

https://undetectable.ai/ai-image-detector

and https://aiseo.ai/tools/ai-image-detector to verify it wasn't.

You went the extra mile. Thank you for looking to those resources. I did some researching but I feel like it’s inconclusive. Apparently there is not a canvas of this work in existence and I find that suspicious — also the fact that no single painter takes credit. And the dubiousness of its date of origin. It’s fishy?

The original painting is real, it’s a Renaissance/Mannerist portrait generally attributed to Parmigianino (c.1530), often titled “Portrait of a Young Woman, possibly Countess Gozzadini,” and the original is held in the Kunsthistorisches Museum in Vienna. The pencil isn’t original — that’s a modern edit. The earliest traceable version with the pencil seems to come from commercial wall-art prints sold under names like “Pen and Lips” by brands such as Canvasez / Bona Fidesa, which start appearing online around 2020–2021. It was almost certainly a simple Photoshop-style edit rather than AI (since it predates widespread generative AI).

Yes!! In this world of 100% bullshit everywhere I forget about photoshop and 50% bullshit anywhere you want.

But fake is fake.

Still… it’s a VERY clever edit… but one that makes me think a meticulous painter used oils… which I find subtly irksome.
