One of the most fun things about art is that these days, it can be almost anything. For instance, even food can be considered to be a form of art. Apparently, people can create truly impressive masterpieces using simple things that we eat every day without giving it a second thought. Even if it’s just a recreation of a famous painting in a form of a… sandwich.
Some time ago, a German Twitter user @MlleReadOn started a fun thread under a hashtag #KunstGeschichteAlsBrotbelag (which loosely translates as “art history as a sandwich”) inviting people to recreate famous paintings on a piece of toast. As always, the internet delivered. These reinterpretations include such classic artworks as da Vinci’s Mona Lisa, van Gogh’s Self-Portrait with Bandaged Ear and Pipe, Klimt’s The Kiss and many more.
With that being said, Bored Panda invites you to look through some of the most creative famous painting recreations as sandwiches.
