The “Tussen Kunst & Quarantaine” Instagram Page Has People Making Incredible Painting Recreations (30 New Pics)

This one is so good!

I like the re-make better than the original.

The re-creation is spot on, but I've always hated the original, so I honestly don't know whether to upvote or not.

THE MAN ACTING AS THE CAT LOL

I like the gender swap

So, that's where all the toilet paper went.

Gentleman With a T-Rex Bobblehead

wow, that expression is SO accurate...is it photoshop or real???

The penguins as operagoers are killing me. Actual lol'ing.

Aw, I love this! The redo and the original... So sweet

Nailed it!

The Scream: Coronavirus Pandemic Version

Quarantine be like:

Well, you have to admit that Frida Kahlo's braid does look like a pretzel.

That face tho- THE POTATOES LOL

nailed it!

"What are we having for dinner Mum?" "Some stranger's head" Why was this painting created though?

Ah yes, the famous walking potato with 4 legs and a up arrow

That's a good use of a comforter.

"(Sigh). I am so done."

Masks! An essential addition for our time period! :)

Wow, so beautiful!

¨Shut the f**k up Edward, It´s the 19th century. Nobody finds Annoying Orange funny anymore.¨

That panda will betray her three times before the rooster crows! But eff it! Let's eat ice cream!

trash-bag couture!

Loving the use of one of the "three wise men" from a nativity scene to gaze upon the hand

The expression of the man is so hilarious

The cat :)

Okay, I can't stop laughing long enough to think of anything witty. I will say I'm pretty sure that snail is the same actual size as the ones in my yard this year.

Ye olde timey coke spoon and straw.

Frasier's dog holding out hope for some noodles. Wonder what dude was so enthralled by in the original? Did he steal that bowl of whatever in that basket? What's going on there?

Love that hair/collar/whatever the heck that cloud of tulle is

That timeless, relatable scene- a woman dressed in a floppy gown while staring at the spine of a 45lb book and balancing a trumpet. Classic.

This is perfect.

Lol, the baby as the small little man in the bottom left corner.

THIS! "Anatomy of Doctor Nicolaes Tulp," by Rembrandt. One of my favorites, beautifully rendered.

Lol!

A for effort!!!

This guy's dead. Says the original painting was called "Chatterton" -- "In June 1770 he moved to an attic room at 39 Brooke Street, where he lived on the verge of starvation until, in August of that year, at the age of only seventeen, he poisoned himself with arsenic." (He wouldn't have looked all peaceful and Romantic like that if he'd poisoned himself with arsenic though.)

lol

Ah yes, a refined glass of coca cola

Are those fritters or beignets in the recreation? That's a tasty alternative.

NAILED IT.

Jeanne D'Arc

This brings up another question I've always pondered; why do so many portraits from this era make everyone look like they've got a raging case of the mumps?

I love how they both look thoroughly annoyed.

I love the red bell peppers.

Brava! A job well done, The Woman In Gold Gustav Klimt

For a second I thought that was Tilda Swinton (or David Bowie :D )

"Yay, he remembered our anniversary. Yay."

The original here is just sad- was there really not a mule available or a cart? Something?

These are both legit adorable. I've nothing snarky to add.

Apollo visits Vulcan's forge to tell him that his wife Venus is having an affair with Mars

Wow, lady in the painting was absolutely gorgeous and I'm pretty sure she knew it. The dog is the recreated version is hilarious.

Pretty sure guy in the original is dead. Pretty sure he'd been dead awhile when this was painted, too.

Nightmare fuel. Good times.

Horizontal cat is horizontal

Really good

Both are charming.

Arcimboldo: The Librarian

I'd really love to know the inspiration here. Both for the original and why anyone wanted to recreate it. Those kids are darn cute, though.

Okay, who stole my ballerina portrait from 2020? Yeah, quarantine weight. The struggle is real.

My kitchen on your average Sunday.

And... I'm done. So glad I scrolled through these before bed- my dreams should be really fun tonight.
