I really like the Mona Lisa comparison. It's got the divided background thing almost as well

Any good Mona Lisa recreation needs to include the optical illusion to be comparable IMO. Though that image resolution is low enough that even the Mona Lisa itself doesn't include it.

She's not smiling but it looks like she is when you see it out of the corner of your eye or from a distance. That's why it's a masterpiece vs all of the other similar portraits painted at the time.
