First of all, I think it has something to do with age. I find that the older people are, the more they like things related to artistic conception, things with far-reaching and philosophical significance. Landscape painting is full of charm and profound significance in the eyes of parents, so they like to regard it as their own? Represents an avatar? . Besides, elders not only like to use landscape paintings as headshots, but even like to persuade me to use their same models? Landscape painting? . For example, my current avatar is a little girl, and my father will say: Look at your head. Why use a little girl as an avatar? ? I said:? Dad, don't you think this little girl looks good when she smiles? ? My father said:? I don't think it's beautiful, but I think her smile is uglier than crying. Then I didn't want to talk to my father, because I found that my aesthetics were different from his. He also said; ? Daughter, look at my head. This painting is beautiful, but it was painted by a famous painter. Although I can't afford the original painting, it's not bad to take painting as the head. ? Then my father gave me another photo of the painter's landscape painting and wanted me to change it. I have never changed, telling his old man that I have a different aesthetic vision from him.
Secondly, it belongs to the older generation? Conformity? And then what? Assimilation effect? . Because most of us are peers and chatting with our peers, the older generation of parents are also chatting with their parents. In their circle, there is a retro culture. As long as one person likes landscape painting, he will recommend it to other peers, so they will use landscape painting as their avatar. As long as one of them feels good-looking, it will be recommended to other relatives and friends. People of the same age have the same hobbies and interests. What about this culture? Popular? Just as my generation likes to use pictures of cute cartoon characters, cute children and their favorite stars as avatars.
In fact, what kind of pictures parents like to use as headshots is their freedom. However, when this phenomenon becomes a rule, it will become particularly interesting.
