150 year old painting appears to show a woman using an iPhone

A painting from the 1860s has a detail seemingly swiped from modern times: a woman hunched and walking with her eyes seemingly glued to a phone.

As a man crouches in wait to spring a flower on her, she doesn't even look up.

Yup, nothing really seems to have changed beyond the nineteenth century garments.
