medieval

At this point we're all aware of the cursed nature of medieval cat art. Their strangely human painted faces are the stuff of bad trips, or for the innocent, nightmares. While we've learned to accept their demonic yet depressed vibe, Twitter user @DannyDutch has clued us into some more fascinating (and slightly freaky) medieval animal art. His thread boasts 17 examples of medieval artists saying "f*ck it, i think this is what xyz animal looks like." And while sometimes the artists hit the nail mostly on the head, some have left us either laughing at their absurdity or feeling slightly disturbed. However these artifacts make you feel, we can be sure of one thing: art and world travel have both come a long way since the Middle Ages.

Many of us may not be able to visit museums due to the coronavirus pandemic, but we're happy to report that we've got the next best thing. Art memes. They combine the creativity and skill of our favorite eras of art with dumb and relatable humor. What more could you want? 

Sick and tired of history memes from the twentieth century? Well you're in luck - this gallery contains 20 dank memes from the times of the Wild West, also known as the Middle Ages. What the f*ck people were doing back then, we'll never truly understand. 

Gesǣlig Eastordæg! Or something like that.

A lot of classical art is beautiful and awe-inspiring, but then there's some that just makes you scratch your head and wonder WTF the artist was even thinking. Most of the following memes reside in the latter camp. Click here for more classical art hilarity from eBaum's World!

Deus vult! These memes are for all the Crusaders who want to take back the Holy Land, or for anyone who digs some ridiculous historical entertainment. Click here for one of our past galleries of deus vult memes!

First of all, what the f*ck was up with artwork in the middle ages? It's like no one had any idea what a cat actually looked like. Luckily for us, it's provided for some excellent entertainment and ridiculous meme-age. Click here for some more medieval memes that made us wonder what the hell was going on back then.

Behold, we have trebuchet memes! They're perfect for when you just need some ridiculous, nonsensical content to take your mind off it all. eBaum's World has even more trebuchet memes in case you're cravin' more! We know you want 'em...

If all we knew about the Middle Ages was from the artwork of the time, we'd be real confused. Thankfully though, its weirdness makes it perfect meme material. If you're in need of more classical art memes, click here!

It's pretty much a proven fact that everyone in the world likes Monty Python and the Holy Grail, so it makes sense that a dank meme inspired by it would be excellent. So without further ado, please enjoy these memes, entitled, "Who Are You, Who Are So Wise In The Ways Of Science?"

Is there a more quotable movie than Monty Python and the Holy Grail? Well aside from Airplane, we think not. 

Movies often times become dated and irrelevant throughout the years, but Monty Python and the Holy Grail is one that will likely be hilarious for generations to come. 

If this gallery inspires you to watch the movie again, then our work here is done.

This gallery has a little bit of everything when it comes to history. We've got your medieval history, WWII history, Revolutionary War history, ancient history, etc. 

We just hope you can learn a thing or two from these memes, unlike your 10th grade history class where the teacher just talked about his divorce for an hour straight every day...

This gallery is for those who are fascinated by both medieval history and dumb classical art memes! We're fans of the artwork created during that time, but that doesn't mean it isn't completely and utterly WTF. And of course, if you want even more weird classical art memes, check out eBaum's World!
