21 'Classical Art Memes' For A Trip Through Time

It seems that it would be obvious that times have changed quite a lot over the years. How life on this planet was hundreds and thousands and millions of years ago isn't anything like it is these days. This is obvious in the art that comes from those times. It's amazing to see the art that was made all that time ago, it's a glimpse into the past. Something interesting about these old, classical art pieces is that sometimes the people and the events seem a little too relatable. Maybe there are some things that have actually stayed the same over time.

This phenomenon sparked the creation of classical art memes. Classical art memes are modern memes made from super old art pieces. It's like a time traveler was placed into some of these images. Reddit's /r/trippinthroughtime is the subreddit made for these memes, and so many of them can be found there. Here are 21 classical art memes, modern memes made from non-modern images.
