40+ Classical Art Memes for High Brow Chucklers

One of life's greatest pastimes is going to a fine art museum, finding a centuries-old portrait of someone looking a lil' ugly, pointing to it, and saying to your friend, "You." Is that dilettante-ish and amateur? No, it's hilarious. And any way we can connect with art is ultimately worthy. We haunt the museum halls in order to find connection, reach into the annals of time, and find something relatable. Art connects us to the past, showing us that an 18th-century banquet is not all that different from a 21st-century dinner party, except we have fewer goblets.

The memes contained in this list take that concept to the nth degree, making manifest the relatability inherent in these artworks. Enjoy this arsenal of art memes, sure to stoke the fancies of cultured gentlefolk such as yourselves. Hang them in your home, and invite friends over to drink wine in front of them.
