Snapchat has released an interactive lens that uses augmented reality to animate the paintings of JMW Turner on the new £20 note.
The photo-sharing app’s new feature coincides with the new polymer bank note entering circulation on Thursday.
Users will be able to bring the image on the note to life using a new Lens, which uses augmented reality to see a full colour, animated version of the painting.
It works by identifying the new note through a Snapchat user's smartphone camera and overlaying the interactive images onto the banknote.
It works in a similar way to how facial filters can be placed over a user's face when using other Lenses in the Snapchat app.
The £20 banknote features a self-portrait of Turner as well as one of his most celebrated paintings, The Fighting Temeraire.
The note will also go on display at The National Gallery - the home of The Fighting Temeraire.
The social media platform confirmed the new Lens would also work on a picture of the note, for those who do not immediately find one in circulation.
The Fighting Temeraire was voted the UK's favourite painting in a poll run by BBC Radio 4.
The note will join the Sir Winston Churchill £5 and the Jane Austen £10 in the Bank of England's first series of polymer notes.
A new polymer £50 featuring Bletchley Park codebreaker Alan Turing will be issued next year.
