25 Classical Art Memes That Showcase the Throes of Modern Love Through Romantic Realism and Relationships (June 13, 2025)

If you take a little trip to your local art museum to peruse the Classical art section, you may think, upon first glance that you have nothing in common with the oil painted figures on the wall. You, dear reader, are surely not a mysterious nymph bathing in a spring, a dazzling knight in shining armour, nor a comical court jester preparing to perform for the king. Be thankful that you are not the protagonist of some Greek myth, Biblical parable, or folktale. However, just like these types of stories can help people understand themselves, so too can art. 

If you are partaking in the mess that is the modern dating scene, you may struggle to imagine how love and romance could possibly be more toxic than it is now. After all, the most captivating romantic tales were written in ages past. However, most of these epic love stories were actually quite toxic if you read between the lines. If you don't believe me, scroll down below and check out all of the sassy side-eye the ancients were giving each other.
