With so many posts on Instagram, the submissions to the page span the range from Renaissance art to modern photography. While they reflect distinct eras and artistic forms, they are unified in their approach.
Each image shows such inventiveness—whether it’s getting the outfit just right or interpreting the painting to our modern life.
Relatable Art
We can certainly relate to this, with a comfy couch, yellow book, and a black dress, not much was needed to recreate this look. Who hasn't felt like this? "Just lie down and look like you're about to take a nap." Done!
This may be a great way to learn about art while being creative with what you have on hand at home.
Lego Art
Some artists use paint, while others use clay or marble, but this guy decided to build his unique work of art out of toy building blocks, Lego bricks, to be exact.
Who said Lego couldn't make a perfect replica of a valuable painting? Technically, this painting is worth $25 million, and Lego costs a few dollars per set, so that's a pretty good saving!
Spoons, Both Big and Small
The Spoonbridge and Cherry by Claes Oldenburg and Coosje van Bruggen can be found floating on a human-made dam at the Minneapolis Sculpture Garden. As we can see, someone decided to make a modest life-sized version in their own kitchen.
We must admit, id we saw the real exhibition in person, it's probably not quite the same, but when we compare them in photographs, they come pretty close!
Similar Yet So Different
Whistler's mother is the official title of this famous artwork, and many have gathered to stare at the elderly, seated figure staring into the distance. The painting in oils on canvas was created by the American-born painter James McNeill Whistler.
Despite being so different in age, both these subjects sit at the forefront, one is someone's mother, while the girl is someone's daughter, but both are certainly at the forefront of someone's heart.
