When you look at apes, do you see a family resemblance?
While we might look quite a bit different from the primate, humans did evolve from that family and still share 99% of their DNA.
We might not see it, but there are still many similarities between the appearance of humans and aps that link us even thousands of years on.
But what would we look like if we had evolved from another animal? Louis XIV’s favorite artists Charles Le Brun, who he once called the greatest French artists of all time, wanted to find out so created this collection of wondrous and fascinating paintings.
Le Brun tried to imagine how we would look if we evolved from donkeys, cats and even owls, which one is your favorite?
