Rap Artists Compared To Famous Paintings And Sculptures

A blog finds correlations between rap artists poses and art prior to the 16th century. Fascinating images.

Ferdinando Verderi and Cecilia Azcarate, art enthusiasts, collaborated for a project finding amazing comparisons between photos of rap artists and art works before 16th century.

Blog B4XVI (before-16th century) features great images comparing Kanye West, with a painting detail of Christ Blessing surrounded by Donor Family, by an unknown German Painter, 1560.

Wiz Khalifa is compared to The Adoration of the Magi, Hugo van der Goes, late 15th century.

Young Thug is compared to Male Ancestor, 1st-4th century, Mesoamerica.
2Chainz is compared with Reliquary arm of St.Valentine, 14th century.
YG is compared with Deity Censer - 1200-1400 Mexico
