painting can be a mere decoration, and can highlight the status of the owner - a deposit of Picasso and Monet in the cabin on the Rose "Titanic" and the general atmosphere of what is happening - like "Hunters the Snow "Brueghel the Elder in" Solaris "Tarkovsky.

often is that recognizable in principle things completely lose its original value, and the authors whose names most people do not say anything, and did changed beyond recognition. For example, the famous self-portrait by Dürer in the movie "Dracula" has turned into a portrait of the Count.
