semblance

noun an outward appearance that is a combination of real and idealized features; a copy that represents an original faithfully but not exactly. Imagine a 'some-blance' of a famous painting. It looks a lot like the original, but it's just a semblance, not the real masterpiece, so it's only an outward appearance of authenticity.
