Pet Photos That Are Renaissance Art(Image credit: Loptimist)Depictions of animals in medieval drawings were sometimes hilariously awful, as we've seen before. Then came the Renaissance, and European art was suddenly beautiful. We saw richly realistic depictions of life, meticulously staged to tell a story in almost poetic form. Today, we can admire a beautiful scene of everyday life and think how it resembles a Renaissance work of art. And since we take endless pictures of our pets, it only stands to reason that a few will end up that nice. And so, in 2019, the subreddit Pet Renaissance was born, to share those artful images with the world.
