Photo editing programs have long been a part of our lives, so you can rarely see a photo that hasn’t been retouched. However, it’s wrong to think that Photoshop belongs only to the modern world. People have been improving the looks of their portraits for centuries. That means there were specialists in photo retouching that date all the way back to the nineteenth century. Even painters have worked hard to make models look more beautiful than they really were.
At Bright Side, we searched the archives and found photos of royalty from the nineteenth century and the beginning of the twentieth century, and we compared them to their portrait paintings. At the end of the article, we’ll show you what Vincent van Gogh really looked like.

What is not right in the picture?

Do you feel up to the challenge? Let’s put your observational skills to the test and see if you can identify the problem with the image! Testing our abilities and learning the details that we may have missed is always enjoyable. Are you prepared now? Now let’s investigate and see what’s off!

We’ve identified the oddity in the image after carefully examining it: the door hinges are on the other side. That is the primary aspect of the image that is incorrect.

Isn’t it amazing how a seemingly insignificant feature, like the location of door hinges, can drastically alter how someone perceives an image?
We can become increasingly aware of these minute variations in our environment by developing our observational skills. So, the next time you come across an image, look closely and see if you can identify anything that doesn’t look quite right! This enjoyable activity maintains our minds active and curious.
