21 Classical Art Memes to Paint You a Portrait of Funnies Today (September 23, 2025)

Do you have your ticket to enter the meme gallery? If you don't, don't worry. There are plenty of exceptions to the rule of entry, and you're one of them! Only those who love humor with a taste for the more timeless things in life are allowed to view this carefully curated list of classical art memes. Who else would be better at appreciating these masterpieces if not you all? Nobody, that's who.

Just when you think internet humor could not possibly get any more different than what used to be entertaining in the past few centuries, there comes a reminder that the human condition is irrevocable. We hold the same innate feelings of a man falling down the stairs as a person 300 years ago, and that's because some circumstances are objectively hilarious.

Even the term "objective" insinuates that there are commonly agreed-upon circumstances and scenarios in life that are universally understood. In the same way we breathe, we will also laugh at a jester sitting solemnly in his little costume. Certain things simply evoke certain feelings from others, and I think that's what is so great about art memes. Even centuries later, we can still share a laugh with those from the past.
