Can you think what she might say?
Find out, what some of history’s most iconic paintings might say if they could talk.
The queen of all paintings —Mona Lisa
She has been smiling mysteriously for over 500 years. She is probably tired of it now. If she could talk, she’d probably say: Hey! You know what, I never had to try hard to be famous. There was no Instagram or Tik Tok.
There was only Leonardo Da Vinci who made my painting simply with colors. He made the painting exactly the way I look.
And see now, even all your filters aren’t enough. You all put soooo many filters and facetune even after clicking selfies with me.
Honey! I am all natural. Even my smile never needed an edit.
You stupid, modern-day people…some of you don’t even look at me and directly click selfies with filters added. So rude and idiotic! Ha!
The Scream: Overwhelmed by Modern Life
Edvard Munch’s ‘The Scream’- If he could talk, he’d probably say:
You really think I aaammmm dramatic? Have you seen yourselves?
So much pollution,traffic and then you have all the social media drama. What else do you expect me to do other than scream?
I am literally the meme of the century — representing all your drama.
Starry Night: Vibing with the Aesthetics
Vincent van Gogh’s Starry Night -If it could talk, it might say:
I am basically the original epitome of aesthetic. People use my vibes for everything— starting from bedroom decor, phone wallpapers, even coffee mugs…and I absolutely love that.
