paintings

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!

These ridiculous memes depict George Washington having hilarious modern-day problems!

Looking at these memes is like going to a museum but better - you don't have to walk anywhere or pay admission and you can laugh out loud

It's okay to laugh at gross jokes when they're accompanied by art memes, right?

They may not have had smart phones, but the struggles of humanity clearly haven't changed much over time.

Dave Pollot repurposes paintings from thrift stores by adding in some beloved pop culture characters and references.

Big shoutout to davepollotart for the terrific work here. These are the kind of paintings you can stare at in peace, and for a while at that.
