25 Memes Made From Classical Art That Are Oddly Relatable

Times have changed quite drastically over the decades. It's interesting to see historical artworks that depict what life was like hundreds of years ago. It's cool that those images are still around to be seen at all. Though it may seem like people back then and the modern person are two totally different entities, it is cool to see just how relatable some of the people and situations in these artworks are. Sometimes it seems like there has been a modern person placed right into the artwork as if some sort of time travel has occurred. People have noticed this and have, of course, made memes from these old images.

Classical art memes are memes that have been made from all kinds of art, typically paintings. They are relatable and silly and are true treasures. Reddit's /r/trippinthroughtime is a subreddit that features all of these kinds of old yet modern memes so everyone can see what life was like back then. Here are 25 of them that are way too real.
