Uhmm, Mel. Totally agree with you.

I included "roses1.jpg" & "roses2.jpg" on purpose:
the 1st one is a painting by Abbott Handerson Thayer,
the 2nd is its copy by some obscure Russian painter.
But it's of course a creative & revamped copy.

In strict sense they are 2 different images (look at their colors etc)
, on the other hand they are closely related to each other.
Plus, we can't tell *in principle* what is original and what is copy
what colors are "right/good" and what colors are "wrong/bad"
