Like hilarious memes? So do I! I happened to stumble across a site
where you can create your own, and on a day that I had loads of time to
kill. That's a dangerous combo!
So who is Joseph Ducreux? He was a
French artist, born in 1735. Ducreux was proficient in several
disciplines, but is probably best known for his portraiture. In fact, he
was the portrait artist in the court of Louis XVI. Nowadays his most
famous portrait is probably his self portrait ca. 1793. What makes it
famous? It's the basis of hundreds of internet memes that have been
circulating, especially on sites like Pinterest.
If Ducreux were around
today to see the grammatical horrors perpetrated in his name, and alongside his own face, he
would probably die of embarrassment or suffer a psychotic break. What am
I talking about? Just click "Read More" to see them in all their glory. Since the
Joseph Ducreux archaic rap memes never fail to entertain me, I decided
to try my hand at few of them. I'm no fan of rap, however, so I took them in
my own direction. I'm sure poor Joe is rolling in his grave!
