Art history is a fascinating subject. From the Renaissance to Pop Art, or from the ancient Pyramids to Abstract Expressionism, art is ever-changing. Besides merely looking nice, art history is a great way to learn about cultures, since art reflects cultural movements and social change. However, art history has many other inadvertently funny moments as well.

1. You always chuckle at Marcel Duchamp's works.

From "Fountain", which is a urinal, to "LHOOQ", which means "she is hot in the pants" (for appropriate reasons), his work always makes you stifle a giggle.

2. Manet and Monet are different artists.

Why couldn't two late nineteenth-century artists have vastly different last names?

3. You always have to go to art museums for homework.

But you can lead the tours!

4. And your Snapchat story always gets a bit longer during your visit.

I can't help it if I'm having fun!

5. People always assume that you can do art as well.

But that is why it's art HISTORY.

6. You frequently find yourself having to memorize 200 paintings.

The best is when there are specific numbers.

7. The color wheel lessons you learned in elementary school are paying off.

Now you can discuss how color is used by artists and why they contrast!

8. You feel cultured when out with friends.

"Oh yes, I love how Cezanne influenced Picasso and Cubism as a whole movement", is always a fun fact.

9. You have a favorite period and will defend it forever.

Because you can present the facts.

10. You tell people that the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge studied Art History at St. Andrews.

So you're basically royalty.

11. Art History might require you to know the artist, title, date, style, and medium of hundreds of paintings.

12. But you would not stop studying it for the world.

Go forth and be artistic!
