Plenty of people have a lot of love for Timothée Chalamet and historical art. But when you combine the two together it's a whole different ball game.

The Instagram account @chalametinart has only been going since the start of July, but it's already racked up an impressive 35,000+ followers. It basically features various historical paintings that have been subtly photoshopped to include the Call Me by Your Name star.

23-year-old Anna, a student from Poland and the person behind the account, said she had the idea for it after watching Call Me by Your Name last year.

"I was absolutely stunned by its beauty," she explained. "The scenery, the music, the acting -- all of it seemed to almost live and breathe art.

"Each shot of the movie, presented from just one perspective (due to the use of a single lens) truly resembled a carefully thought-out painting."

The first few edits were made in under 10 minutes each, Anna said, just for fun. But it wasn't long before people started to take notice.

"I decided to give them some more effort and then the account really blew up," she said. "It was really unexpected but incredibly rewarding. Now the process of editing takes me from about one to three hours, as I run the picture through various different programmes to give them more of an authentic look."

Anna said the reaction to her account has been unbelievable.

"I feel a bit overwhelmed, but more importantly incredibly grateful for all the support I got over the past two weeks," she said. "I definitely plan to keep on going, but maybe at a slower rate as posting daily is quite time consuming. 

"It's truly an extraordinary experience and I'm beyond excited that the account was able to unite the fans of Timothée in this exceptional way."

Surely it's only a matter of time now before the man himself responds.

You can following Anna's work on both Instagram and Twitter.
