23 Classical Art Memes Illustrating the Ins and Outs of Intimacy for Medieval Maidens (June 5, 2025)

It's so easy to catch a vibe when you're gazing at a piece of classical artwork. All of the rich and romantic details can get you really fantasizing about living life as a Greek nymph or spending your days being courted by knights. But the reality of those times passed was actually quite grim. Sure, we have our failings now as a society in the modern age, but at least we have a better understanding of illnesses, access to clean water, and Spotify. 

Gone are the days where a man would stand outside of your balcony and proclaim his love for you with a poem, but if you're lucky, you might find a nice man on Tinder that is willing to order you an Uber home after your first date. Indeed, we face all sorts of new trials and tribulations now with love, but the ancient arts hold an eternal wisdom that captures our imaginations. Scroll down to see the best amalgamations of the old and new presented in meme form.
