One of Coca-Cola's many taglines was: "You can't beat the real thing." The company was trying to say that even though there were a lot of similar drinks, none of them was as good as the "real" Coke.

You might not agree. But when it comes to art, researchers in the Netherlands think it's true — you can't beat the real thing.

A small study has found that real artworks stimulate the brain much more than posters or prints of the same work.

The Mauritshuis ("MAO-rits-haus") Museum in The Hague commissioned the study. The museum's best-known artwork is Girl with a Pearl Earring by Johannes Vermeer.

Researchers showed this artwork and four others to 20 people. While they were looking at the paintings, their brain activity was measured using a brain scanner.

The participants were also asked to look at posters of those same five artworks. The researchers compared their brain activity when looking at the real artworks and when looking at the posters.

They found that when looking at the real artworks, participants had an emotional response that was 10 times stronger compared to when they were looking at the posters.

Martine Gosselink from the museum said this was an "enormous difference." She said they had thought that looking at the real thing might give people a richer experience, but now "we can really say that it is true."

The researchers said the real art caused a strong emotional response in a part of the brain called the precuneus. This part of the brain is involved with self-reflection and personal memories.

Some have said that this research demonstrates the importance of museums and galleries for people of all ages.

Study: Real Art Stimulates Brain More than Posters

La leyenda de La Candileja proviene de las zonas rurales de Colombia y cuenta la historia de un espíritu que aparece en forma de tres bolas de fuego brillantes y ardientes. Según la tradición, La Candileja es el alma de una abuela que malcrió a sus nietos, permitiendo que fueran crueles y malvados. Como castigo, fue condenada a vagar por los caminos, atormentando a quienes se cruzan en su camino.

La Candileja se presenta como una luz brillante que flota en el aire, moviéndose rápidamente de un lado a otro, persiguiendo a los viajeros que se atreven a andar solos por las noches. A veces, aparece con un sonido espeluznante y otras simplemente los deja desorientados, perdidos en la oscuridad. Muchos dicen que si alguien es alcanzado por estas llamas, puede quemarse sin remedio.

Para protegerse de La Candileja, algunos campesinos aconsejan llevar consigo una rama de sauce o encender una fogata, ya que la luz del fuego puede hacer que el espíritu se aleje.
