John Malkovich recreated a bunch of famous historical portraits, and it’s perfect

John Malkovich’s career has been full of variety to say the least. In a photo project which simultaneously celebrates Malkovich’s unique talent as a theatrical chameleon while paying tribute to classic photography, Sandro Miller brings us a new photo-series entitled Malkovich, Malkovich, Malkovich: Homage to Photographic Masters.

From artFido:

From iconic imagery such as Salvador Dali’s ridiculous mustachios to the unforgettable Marilyn Monroe preserving her dignity with a pair of pink roses, Miller and Malkovich recreate a whole plethora of portraits with infinite attention to detail and endless wit.
