Paintings by the old masters are timeless works of art. Some would say they’re priceless and should never be touched. Others dare to put a price on them (like the $500 million for da Vinci’s “Salvator Mundi”) and perhaps even touch them.
But we here at Bored Panda believe that classical art can serve another purpose: it can be a great canvas for witty, sarcastic memes. Digital creator Varkey is probably of the same opinion, since he curates the Instagram page dedicated to mixing classical paintings with captions relating to contemporary life. Whoever said that classical art is boring has never seen what Varkey can do with an Edmund Leighton!
