Classical art memes are...well a...classic if we're being honest. They'll never go out of style and we are a-okay with that because we thinking they're hysterical. They're particularly amusing when paired with adult or totally inflammatory jokes, and we've got lots of that in this gallery, so go ahead and enjoy!

We know that roasts involve people literally asking for it, but also...why? Guess some people are just confident enough to not be legitimately and deeply hurt by it, and honestly we're pretty envious of that. This round of Reddit roasts takes the form of insulting sketches (made by SketchyCrab) that highlight the victim's worst features!
Do classical art memes ruin the magic and awe of historical artwork? Probably, but they're just so effing funny that we're not going to stop giving them to you. They seem to give us somewhat of a sense of the extremely WTF antics that were going on back in those days!
We think that anyone should be able to practice whatever religion they want, but we have to say that sometimes religious rules go a little far. That was definitely the case at this fundamentalist Baptist college, where they censored the nudity out of classical paintings. The results are a giant fail, but also effing hilarious.
A lot of classical art pieces are pretty bizarre, which is why we make so many memes out of them. This particular painting, entitled "The Village Politicians," was completed by John L. Krimmel in 1819 and features an angry man with an oddly painted face pointing at his hand.

Illustrator Brian Kesinger may have made a name for himself with his illustration work at Walt Disney Studios, but it's his work outside of the movie business that really gets fans going. His steampunk art has been his most successful, featuring whimsical cephalopods and frilly fashions - but our favorite series of his combines the Star Wars universe with Calvin and Hobbes.
The Middle Ages, which lasted from the 5th to the 15th century, was no doubt a fascinating period of time for any history nerd out there. But perhaps one of the most fascinating parts of it was some of the extremely WTF-worthy art that came out of it. If you're not sure what we're talking about here, just scroll down to see!
There's a bit of a meme rule that's been floating around since as early as 2003. It's called "Rule 23" and it states that if it exists, there's a porn of it. Well, we think there should be another rule regarding the "ruination" of classic cartoons.

His incredibly creepy drawings of Garfield stalking Jon went viral, and have since inspired similar pieces from many artists. We've rounded up a bunch of creepy examples for your viewing displeasure.
