Requesting sauce on the original paintings from my large collection of chudjak edits. For example I already know pic related.
This one looks like a pastiche
>>1547327Would also appreciate a translation of the inscription here

>>1547347> The bronze statue of Archangel Michael, standing on top of the castel Sant'Angelo, Rome, modelled in 1753 by Peter Anton von Verschaffelt (1710–1793).
>>1547351Don't know where this illustration of Aryans invading India comes from.
>>1547329>The Romans in their Decadence by Thomas CoutureAyy, looked up decadence on wikipedia and they had this painting right at the top of the article.An online translator said the text means "Here's how the world appears to someone who has never touched vegetation" but I don't know if it's proper Latin.
>>1547324There are countless paintings and sculptures of Pygmalion and Galatea, but this one by Jean-Jacques Lagrenee seems like the closest match.
>>1547330>Jean-Léon Gérôme, Phryne revealed before the Areopagus (1861)I don't recognize any of the others.

>>1547454>The statue of Laocoön and His Sons, also called the Laocoön Group (Italian: Gruppo del Laocoonte), has been one of the most famous ancient sculptures since it was excavated in Rome in 1506 and put on public display in the Vatican Museums,[2] where it remains today. The statue is very likely the same one praised in the highest terms by Pliny the Elder, the main Roman writer on art, who attributed it to Greek sculptors but did not say when it was created.[3] The figures are nearly life-sized, with the entire group measuring just over 2 m (6 ft 7 in) in height. The sculpture depicts the Trojan priest Laocoön and his sons Antiphantes and Thymbraeus being attacked by sea serpents.[1]

only ones left:>>1547324need exact painting>>1547325might not have a source?>>1547326>>1547327might be original? nothing about it seems obviously traced from some classic painting>>1547333also might be original>>1547347need to find the source that the figures on the left are copied from>>1547350>>1547445>>1547452obviously supposed to be Hercules fighting the hydra, but I couldn't find source
Thank you very much! >>1547477I already googled the ones with ultra-mainstream sources, I'll post those later.>>1547445I seem to remember hearing that this is a scene from the Kalevala
>>1547445>>1547542Oh hey, googling The Kalevala immediately turns up the source.The Defense of the Sampo by Akseli Gallen-Kallela
Pretty fun thread, honestly.
>>1547506These next few look original, or heavily modified. Something about the composition gives it away. Modern artists and photographers, let alone shitposters, don't seem to give much thought to composition. The only one we couldn't identify that gives me Renaissance vibes is >>1547326
Here Henry VIII looks like his portrait by Hans Holbein the younger. Not sure about the others.
>>1547324Yandex found the source image. Says it's "Pygmalion and Galatea" by Konstantin Makovsky (Russian, 1839-1915). Couldn't find it anywhere else. It does look like Makovsky's radiant style though.
This one is posted endlessly but I don't know its name or even what to search for.
>>1547614https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Rhodes_Colossus>what to search forbritish empire man standing on map
>>1547638LOLFor some reason I thought it was a caricature of Teddy Roosevelt
This is not a painting, but still looking for the source. It looks like something Alan Moore would draw, although his shading is a lot simpler IIRC
