Cicero Moraes collaborated with other designers to develop the reconstruction of the face of the musician who died more than 200 years ago
The Brazilian stylist Cicero Moraes and six other professionals – Jiří Šindelář, Michael E. Habicht, Luca Sineo, Thiago Beaini, Elena Varotto AND Francesco Maria Galassi —recreated the face of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozartkilled in 1791, with the help of Artificial Intelligence. The result of the work was published in the scientific journal Anthropological review (go Extra).
Moraes explained on the blog Page not foundfrom the newspaper Extrathe motivation of the study:”As a fan of classical music, after learning of the existence of an alleged Mozart curiosity pushed me to proceed with the forensic facial approximation. I reached out to the other team members and we came together for this project.”
Although there is ongoing debate over the authenticity of the skull, housed in a museum in Salzburg, Austria, where the composer was born, Moraes stated that “the purpose of the article is not to prove whether or not the skull belonged to Mozartbut precisely to debate questions relating to the anatomical piece by delving into historical questions”.
The most reflected image of Mozart it is a portrait dated 1819, of Barbara Kraft. Check it out below:
