It’s a visual reference to Girl with a Pearl Earring by Vermeer, with the addition of an orange.
Thought so, thanks. Came here to see if I was reading too much into it.
Oh, I was kidding just to sound like I had an explanation and then throw the orange in as an afterthought. It does look like a reference, though.
I think you’re actually right, and I’m theorizing the orange is a reference to the painting The Son of Man with the apple in front of his face? I’m likely reading too far into it…

Oranges simbolize both that the portrait’s protagonist is a person of means, as this fruit was expensive and hard to come by.
It also may reference winter, which might also connect with a later stage of life.Finally, it might be a nationalistic symbol, showing support for the house of Orange against the Spanish invasion.
The fact that no word rhymes with Orange is proof enough that the Houses of Orange were divided on the subject of the Spanish invasion. The Spanish queen was even once overheard by one of her horses saying, “My best friend is an orange.” Of course, that horse was named Glitterhoof - and was best known for throwing entire empires into envious fits of rage over whoever else may have possessed Glitterhoof. This could often lead to entire houses and branches of those houses being slaughtered in often dubious circumstances.
This violence led to a prince dying and passing his titles to his cousin, causing the Houses of Orange to call themselves Orange-Nassau. This is almost certainly a subtle message in support of the type of destruction that Glitterhoof was responsible for - albeit indirectly, but very intentionally. Or much worse, she likens herself to Glitterhoof of House Horse. I’ll give her the benefit of the doubt that this is not the case - the alternative is unconscionable.Bout mix that orange with porridge while Im fixing my door hinge
Poor hinge you’ve got there, Mr Mathers.
“Glitterhoof?? But I barely know’er!”
The real answer is that it adds depth to the otherwise very edited shot which would look “flat” otherwise.
This one is being non coherent on purpose, it’s funny but I wouldn’t be sure it’s true aneurysm posting
This is some “SO RADNOM XD” shit lol
This whenever I ask any designer about anything. I actually wonder if “design school” is just a place where you hang out and drop acid.
