Nothing makes you feel your age more than seeing how your idols have aged over the years.

The Dutch artist Ard Gelinck has created a mesmerising portfolio of pictures, showing some of the world’s best-known celebrities in affectionate poses with … their younger selves.

While the perfectly photoshopped pics show the aging process in stark contrast, it also makes one feel much older than we care to admit.

There are some true gems in this collection.

I love the Johnny Depp, Julia Roberts, Robert de Niro and George Micheal ones the best, while the Amy Winehouse and Freddie Mercury ones make me a little sad!

Which one(s) make you stare the hardest; that you can’t you look away from, or make you giddy with nostalgia?
