Altered images and adverts in the internet

In a collection of google images related to Vladimir Nabokov I found the one that is reproduced below. There is an address "altered image@..." indicating that something in the image is amiss (the TW mug? the colored butterflies?).
However, curiously enough, what first struck me was the face. Was it altered, too?
The leather sandals and dark socks made me wonder about VN's favorite kinds of footwear. He describes women's feet and shoes but I cannot remember any similar treatment for his male characters.
Name That Author?
