The filter is accessible through the Google Arts & Culture app, which is available on both Android and iOS devices. Once they have the app installed, users just need to select the camera function through it and then choose from a series of different effects. This includes the famous self portraits of Vincent Van Gogh and Frieda Kahlo, as well as Johannes Vermeer's 'Girl with a Pearl Earring' painting. The artifacts include a traditional Samurai helmet, and an intricate Ancient Egyptian necklace.
