Less Than 95 Medieval Memes to Post on the Church Door

I am obsessed with going to the medieval section of an art museum. The paintings have such a unique visual style that is unparalleled by any other era of art history. First of all, there is so much gold. Yellow is my favorite color, and I love gold jewelry, so this is a major boon. I also love that medieval canvases are often a unique shape. They're not the boring rectangles you will find in the Impressionism exhibit. 1300s England had pentagons galore! 

I think it goes without saying that the best aspect of medieval art is how messed up the people look, especially the babies. I've seen Jesus Christ rendered as the ugliest baby in the world more times than I can say. The depictions of the Virgin Mary do not look any better. She's usually pallid and exhausted-looking. If you're more attractive than a person in a medieval portrait, these medieval memes might give you a needed confidence boost.
