A woman was left shocked after a stranger pointed out she was the doppelgänger of a 1909 painting.

Riley Madison Ladner, 22, had never heard of "At the Dressing Table" a painting by Russian artist Zinaida Serebriakov."

But someone messaged her on TikTok and told her about the uncanny resemblance.

Riley initially brushed it off but when she started receiving more messages she decided to look it up.

Riley was stunned to see a near-identical version of herself.

The painting depicts a young woman with loose, dark hair sitting at a dressing table.

The similarities including her features, hair, and even a nightgown she already owned were so striking that she decided to recreate the look.

Rile, a content creator from Bay St. Louis, Mississippi, USA, said: "It was very chilling - almost unnerving because it was so similar."

"I thought it was so interesting and cool because I'm a painter myself."

"The painting looks so modern so I was surprised to learn it was over 100 years old."

"When I showed my husband, he said ‘Oh my gosh, you have a nightgown just like that!'"

"So when I made the video, I intentionally wore it but I already had it."

The resemblance has sparked theories online with some joking she could be a reincarnation of the woman in the painting.

Riley is even considering taking a DNA test to see if she has any connection to the artist.

She said: "I'd love to do a DNA test just for fun. "

"It would be so interesting to see if there's any link or if it's just pure coincidence."
