In his unique way, the blogger also educates his followers about some less famous pieces of art by placing pop stars and politicians into them! In his world, "Admiration" by William Bouguereau features Beyoncé's pregnancy picture that drove the Internet crazy in February and court jester Stańczyk by Jan Matejko suddenly turns into Donald Trump.
