Most of the most popular masterpieces of the past often hold intriguing meanings that allow viewers to figure out these messages themselves. But lo and behold, these brilliant people are making it easier for us to understand what the artwork is trying to convey – in the most hilarious way – by turning these paintings into classical art memes. Indeed, adding a funny caption into a seemingly serious masterpiece presents a comical contrast that is oddly fascinating.

And if we say ‘modern artists’, this also includes meme creators because these hilariously captioned images are now considered an integral part of internet culture. Historical masterpieces not only grant us artistic satiation but they also offer a window into history. And while most of these old paintings are undeniably beautiful, some of them can be just as weird.
