Who is the author of this painting? At present, netizens are eager to discuss it. Analysts pointed out that the creator of this painting may have been inspired by the famous "Athens School" by the Italian painter Raphael. But in Raphael's famous paintings, the characters are ancient philosophers. Although the characters in this painting are all world celebrities, there is no distinction between modern and ancient. However, sharp-eyed netizens still found some clues. Most of the characters in the painting are depicted on the side, and only a few people, such as Chairman Mao, have drawn the whole picture. Therefore, people guess that the author of this painting may come from China. In addition, there are three Chinese in the upper right corner of the painting. They are dressed in modern clothes, but many netizens in the world do not recognize who they are. Until recently, this secret was unraveled. The three were respectively the director of the Chinese Artists Association, Dai Dudu, the famous contemporary oil painter Li Tiezi and Zhang Anjun. Standing next to them is the Italian poet Dante. British artist Alastair Shuk believes that this painting reflects the trend of contemporary Chinese artists adapting to Western art styles and themes. But Dante led us to see the deep "Hero Hell", which led modern people to appreciate "Celebrity Paradise."
