I look like John Singer Sargent's niece.

Some background: Mr. 33 is an artist/graphic designer and my Christmas and birthday cards are usually made by him on the computer, using old paintings and such with slight, funny alterations. Well this was my birthday card one year. Keep in mind I had never seen the painting. I opened the card, stared in shock and went "where did you get this??!" I honest to God thought it was a picture of me from college, sleeping on the couch in our sorority house. The reproduction was a little blurry, so even the couch looked the same. It is very, very weird to see a painting of someone from 1911 and mistake them for yourself.
