Your Museum Doppelganger – Ever wondered if your portrait is hanging up in a museum anywhere? Now you can find out with this app!
Your Museum Doppelganger
I heard about this on Air1 this morning and also I saw it on Facebook with a local TV station. So I went to see who my Museum Doppelgänger is. First off, what is a Doppelganger. They say a Doppelganger is a look a like. Pretty much your twin as they say. Someone that looks exactly like you! There is an app by Google that uses Facial Recognition to find a museum portrait that looks like you. This has been trending!
I am sure each time you submit a different selfie, it would give you different artwork. I even heard some people are adding going to see the painting on their bucket list.
The Google App is called Google Art and Culture
The app gave me four …
I had to scroll down on the app until it popped up to do this. Below are the five matches the Google Art & Culture App Gave me.

Still think it is funny it shows me as a Monk for my twin. What a beard eh?

Who was Your Museum Doppelganger?
Please feel free to share in the comments below.
I am sure, each time I would submit a different selfie, it would turn up a different artwork. Plus, I don’t think my preliminary trial was that accurate. I seen other people and their results and was like WOW!
Anywho, do you think any of these look like me?

It didn’t work for me, a calico Cat. Maybe they haven’t done Facial recognition with animals yet
I am sorry to hear that Lilly Bug. Maybe you cats can take your hooman’s pictures and see what comes up.
Your look-a-like is definitely the monk!
LOL Thanks, I was wondering which one looks more like me. I thought it was interesting through it showed a painting of Saint Paul. But, what was most weird is the painter’s wife. Either I look like a woman, or his wife looked like a man. LOL
I just redid the app and got the Monk with a Book again but with 60% match this time. I also got 4 other artworks. I plan to add those soon.
