You needn’t study art to have heard of Picasso, Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci or the Mona Lisa. Especially the Mona Lisa. The lady with the smile. Is she sad? Is she happy? We might never know. She’s memorable. That much we do know. The Mona Lisa was the mother of memes since before memes were even a thing. There have been so many variations of the famous painting that you’d be forgiven for forgetting what the original looked like.

But the Mona Lisa isn’t the only meme-worthy work of art that’s providing people with endless entertainment. Twitter page Art History Memes for Aesthetic Fiends has over 50 thousand followers. All art and meme lovers. Keep scrolling for some classic examples of life imitating art. And find out how the Mona Lisa became a global icon.

It had not been 'lost' but was sold at auction in the 1990s for a fair price, then later bought by Sony for se as a film prop. Nothing odd about this. Later sold for under $300k

    It is said Italian artist Leonardo da Vinci started painting her somewhere between 1503 or 1506. The real Mona Lisa was apparently a lady called Lisa Gherardini who married a wealthy Italian man and became Lisa del Giocondo. Her husband had asked da Vinci to paint her. But the portrait became a masterpiece in procrastination.

    I was the print buyer for Trans America/Speedy Auto Glass. My boss tells me that his frat brother just bought a printing company in Seattle and wanted to solicit our business. I told Doug I had no intention of switching, but I'd take the meeting. Guy shows up, we shook hands and then he literally was talking to my boobs. I let him go on for a bit and then tilted my head to my far left, making eye contact with him and said, "They don't speak, Ed." He turned almost purple and Doug was laughing so hard I thought he was going to fall out of his chair. I just said, "Meeting terminated".

    Fun fact: In the 1990 an Italian TV journalist tried to promote through his show a fundraising to restore the damaged Moai in Easter Island. He had researchers find a volcanic stone similar to the unique stone of the island, that by luck happened to be found in a small town in central Italy with a peculiar geological history (Vitorchiano). Then, he invited one of the last existing Easter Islander families of Moai sculptors to manufacture a new Moai, with the traditional techniques and in actual size. The Vitorchiano Moai is considered authentic by the Rapa Nui people, being the largest and the only non-stolen Moai outside of Easter Island. The Moai is still visible in one of the town squares.

    Da Vinci worked on it for several years, carrying it everywhere with him. He’s believed to have only finished it shortly before he died in 1519. And it was never handed over to the client. Instead, the artist sold it to France’s King Francis I in 1518. The painting eventually ended up in The Louvre in Paris but didn’t attract as much attention back then as it does now. And here's why...

    Ms Mona Lisa is known for her mysterious smile and captivating gaze. But that’s not what made her so famous. On 21 August 1911, a maintenance worker at The Louvre snuck into the museum on a Saturday afternoon. The Italian ripped the painting off the wall, hid it under his clothes and walked out onto the street.

    This!! Every night between 1:30 and 2:30 am my cat Tiger decides to get the zoomies and serenades me, which keeps me and Dust Bunny awake. Since we're both up and NOT asleep, (thank you, insomnia) DB has to join in and it's like an opera of meows in surround sound. I'm glad Gizmo and Cricket sleep like the dead and the ONLY thing wakes up those 2 up is a tornado siren. During spring/summer/fall they test them on Saturday at 12:00 pm, only if the weather is clear so people don't freak out. If you live in Oklahoma, it's a Pavlov Dog response, you hear sirens and it's not a sunny Saturday, it's an "Oh, S**t" moment. They're smart, if the sirens go off and there isn't thunder or lightning and everyone is chilling the 6 of them won't freak out. If it's the opposite they'll get agitated, that's a different issue. Long winded, but it explains Cricket and Gizmos response to sirens and why they wont wake up at night when Tiger and DB does their thing.

    The theft made world headlines. And the painting gained fame overnight. Crowds poured into the gallery to see the empty space where it once hung. Newspapers printed photos of it. The Mona Lisa was turned into postcards, a short film and even cabaret songs. But the original painting remained missing. As police investigated, another famous artist Pablo Picasso was one of those arrested on suspicion he’d stolen it. He was quickly released and the search continued.

    I once went to an exhibition of Picasso's work when he was young, even a teenager. He had nothing to prove about figurative art. His drawings were as precise as a photo before he was twenty. No wonder he looked for other ways of expression.

    I always wondered about that: Why was/is he so famous? Then I saw his early works. He could've been a painter in the usual style of the time, and an excellent one at that, but instead he went and shattered expectations, exploring new forms - and that's why he became a legend.

    “Generous rewards were promised for her return – but all in vain. Nothing was heard of the painting for over two years. Then one day, Vincenzo Peruggia, a glazier who had worked at the Louvre, tried to sell the world’s most famous painting to an Italian art dealer...who alerted the authorities. So the Mona Lisa was recovered – and her fame was all the greater,” reads The Louvre’s website.

    The high-profile heist turned the Mona Lisa into a global icon. She was exhibited in Florence, Milan and Rome, before being returned to the Louvre. More than 100 thousand people visited her in the first two days “back home”.

    No, it's reality. It's a portrait of Ed Walker.

    In 1919, an artist called Charles Duchamp drew a mustache and goatee on a replica of Mona Lisa - and the world was never the same again. Mona Lisa became a mood. Duchamp had paved the way for a plethora of parodies. Other artists, and then the public, followed suit. There was Mona Lisa fever. Pneumonia Lisa, Corona Lisa, Monday Lisa, Menopausa Lisa.

    Despite being centuries old, Mona Lisa remains a modern muse. She’s managed to reinvent herself many more times than Madonna. We reimagine her magical smile and move her into situations we can relate to. A sly grin after getting away with something sneaky or a fake smile when faced with an awkward social situation. There are even websites like this one, dedicated solely to Mona Lisa memes.

    ADVERTISEMENT

    As Elephant Magazine reported, “Most of these memes see the Mona Lisa reimagined as a contemporary figure: she’s posing for a selfie with duck face; she’s cuddling a Shiba; she’s having a bad hair day; and in the age of corona, she’s now even donned a face mask.”

    Actually, Indiana Jones presents the argument for moving countries. But it took place in the 1940s, so I'm up for replacing them. Incidentally, "losing one's marbles" comes from Elgin's marble sculptures, taken from Greece because the political situation was deemed to crazy.

    I'm reminded of the computer games of my childhood (1980s.) Some of them came with physical "copy protection" to ensure you couldn't just give your friends pirated copies of the floppy disks. Some had instruction manuals and when you'd start up the game, they'd say "Type in the third word of the first paragraph on page ten". A few had these "wheel" things where there were different images on the outer and inner wheels, and you had to match them up to match an image on the computer screen. Then there would be a little slot in the center wheel where a number or word would be revealed, and you'd have to type that in. Monkey Island had the best one. I've attached a pic of the wheel XD I still have my original wheels from the MI games (and one from another LucasArts game called Night Shift!)

    Well, I can guarantee you it wasn't "uphill both ways" for any of them, because that defies reality XD But also, unless your family lived on the Tibetan Plateau, Antarctica, or on a literal glacier, it wasn't "actually a reality" for them, as it wasn't snowing all year round (as is the implication of the painting).

    And as the art magazine aptly states, “By making her into a meme we also make the Mona Lisa one of us. We enjoy it when celebrities are just like us, and who cares if she’s just an inanimate Renaissance painting, the fame and zeal she’s created is on a level with the instafamous stars of today."

    My area it’s 50/50 old people who only do one speed and are using you to determine where the lanes is, and dudes in jacked up trucks driving like they’re the only ones allowed on the road. In the latter, said dudes are also about 75% likely to cut you off at a left turn because their time is more important.

    They do, but because some people have to shoehorn God into everything there is a branch of Christian 'science' known as Theistic Evolution, which takes all that we know about evolution but credits God with planning it from the start.

    I always used to say that it doesn't matter what the building looks like that you live in; it's the one across from you that counts! This also somehow triggers the memory of living in beautiful Edinburgh for a time in a lovely old flat. The only issue was living opposite a lady who liked to do her own self-tan occasionally and clearly thought her translucent bathroom blinds were opaque. Got an eyeful a couple of times by accident. She was remarkably bendy.

    Much symbolism was used in paintings as people couldn't read. The raunchy statue is to highlight that he is too old for her and cannot fulfill her "youthful desires" as more age appropriate men could. Makes her laughing more brutal and his stare more haunting. Notice her blazing angelic white and huge size in comparison to him, while he is dark and weak looking. It's all about imasculating him.

    They would have found another reason to start the war. They didn't even like the guy, even said it was nice that he was gone. And the thing is that they thought they were starting a "short war of a few days", until it just grew and grew as more countries got pulled into it.

    When we visited the Mauritshuis last year they had a great exhibit of Girl with the Pearl Earring remakes/ interpretations because the original was loaned to another museum. Wish this version would've been a part of it! (My favourite one was comprised of buttons)

    I can never figure it out but this painting captivates me in a way that no other painting does. Every time I see it on BP I stare at for at least 10 minutes. Something about her eyes. No other painting makes me feel the way it does.

    There was an architecture post a few months ago that had some brutalism, and it actually was kind of interesting. I think it got ugly and sad when people looked at it and were like, let's build office buildings that look like parking garages!

    And some *really smart* people think Akhenaten was an alien because of his elongated skull… Edit: his skull didn’t actually look like this. He was obsessed with his subjects thinking he had a divine origin and so his iconography reflected this. Fun fact: his son was King Tut! It’s fascinating to read about Akhenaten… After his death he was noted as a heretic because he tried to dismantle Egypt’s polytheism and install the sun god Aten (whose name he adopted as part of his) as the only figure to be worshipped. He was pretty much wiped from the history of Egypt.

    Mustard and ketchup both do not require refrigeration. Strangely enough, neither does salami.
