23 Classical Art Memes Illustrating the Ins and Outs of Intimacy for Medieval Maidens

Long-term love is not easy, even as transcending as it is. But the rough patches, the arguments, the pain ultimately leaves both parties feeling deeper and closer to each other than they did before, which is the whole reason to love someone, to see into their soul. Classical art memes have a way of poking us in our most sensitive places of romance and intimacy, while still making us chuckle. To illustrate the ins and outs of intimacy in relationships isn't hard to do. The turmoil and tumult that comes too naturally from love and intimacy is something ubiquitous to any human being. As humans, even as rational as we behave, or as strong as we want to be, are emotional creatures. We are swayed and moved by our emotions, almost to a fault. 

The pressing and pulsating nature of emotions give rise not only to pendulum swings in our love lives, but also to our need for an artistic catharsis. This battle within ourselves can be remedied, at least ephemerally, through artistic expression. This is just what the classical painters of the 14th and 15th centuries thought, and it's true to the modern day. Somehow love's pangs and problems can be seen through the centuries.
