Photographer Stefan Draschan haunts the art museums, waiting to capture photos of People Matching Artworks. Other projects include People Sleeping in Museums and Couples Matching.
I really enjoyed the People Matching Artworks. Some of them are so distinct that I couldn't help wondering if the viewers realized the similarities! I particularly like this one and this one.

I've notice visual coincidences like the matching observers, very cute, never thought to make a project. Wondering how much he did a spontaneous snap vs well not stalking but oh say wandering in the same direction as an interesting goer.

I love this. I was in the Art Institute of Chicago and saw a woman kneeling in much the same pose as a statue behind her. I didn't quite capture the moment in time, but I came close.

They are all good.
And some are amazing matchups.
I suppose he might follow people with interesting clothing until they stop at a relevant painting. And some views work with a lot of subjects.
