Museums and art galleries can be a real brain workout for regular folks. But fear not! Some genius folks out there decode ancient wisdom and simplify it so even us mere mortals can grasp it. Memes and old-school art might seem like an odd combo, but some museums and galleries are getting hip. They’ve given the green light to visitors snapping pics and sharing them on social media. It’s like turning an exclusive club into a friendly neighborhood hangout. While Da Vinci probably never thought his art would become meme material, this way, his and other old-school artists’ work becomes more relatable to us regular folks.
We, at The Language Nerds, have gathered a bunch of classical art memes that will crack you up, and they’ll give your inner snob a good chuckle. Whether it’s deciphering what girls are really doing in the bathroom or catching those ancient con artists selling Jesus souvenirs at the crucifixion, these art history memes show that people have been up to the same antics for centuries. Take a look below at this hilarious list and cast your vote for the ones that tickle your funny bone the most.
