The selfies are seemingly parallel in nature to the artwork.

You probably know what I’m talking about. These things:

The latest iteration of the Google Arts & Culture app, which promises to scour more than 1,200 museums in over 70 countries to find one’s art doppelganger, has become a viral hit.

Though the Google Arts & Culture app has been available since 2016, the find-your-art-lookalike feature was released with its latest update in mid-December.

Google spokesman Patrick Lenihan told The Washington Post that

“The feature was an idea someone had last year and was incorporated into the app with little fanfare. Its popularity has been completely organic”,

he added.

“We’re always trying to figure out cool and interesting ways to get people talking about art, and this was one of them,”

Lenihan said.

As it turns out, all those photos are from a Google app that’s over a year old. It’s called the Google Arts & Culture app, and it’s free on Google Play and the Apple App Store.

First, download the Google Arts & Culture App from the App Store.


Open the app and you’ll see some pictures on the first, Scroll down until you see below: “Is your portrait in a museum?”

Tap “Get started.”After tapping “Get Started,” Google asked to accept that it would send my selfies to Google.

After that brief warning, you’re able to get started.

Once you take selfie, it then analyzes your face and give a suitable portrait art:

 

As you may have already noticed, the app doesn’t just identify portraits that you resemble, but it also identifies how much you resemble them. There’s a percentage with each comparison.

And, lest you run out of faces to make, the app doesn’t just deliver results for humans. Who got highest percentage match while I come around the internet to see is this dog, hope no one beat 77% till now. 🙂
