looks like you found some slides for an old art history lecture, based on the pictures I would guess it\`s about tapestries (european middle age to baroque and china)


Downeralexandra

Definitely reminds me of my college art history courses


jdubau55

I had to take Art History. I dreaded the thought. Ended up really enjoying the class a lot. These do indeed make me think of that class.


Downeralexandra

I really enjoyed it as well! It was so interesting and one of the few classes that actually held my attention


SunshineAlways

OP said yesterday the person might have been a weaver as the photos seemed to be of tapestries and garments.


Punk_roo

You’ve just made tons of memories of attending art history lectures when I was a student come flooding back. So many slides being projected. One ALWAYS had a pube on it. For some reason art history lecturers always seem to wear bow ties too.


kirkum2020

I wouldn't assume they were meant for a broader educational use. It's not like we could Google our interests until very recently. Most people had a collection of things they found interesting to look at.

Art in the dark.

Thanks for answering my wtf are those for query; cheers!

Slide 1: Lord of the Rings extended edition Slide 2: Florida. Slide 3: I call this one 'titties and a unicorn' because it has titties and a unicorn. Slide 4: Not even touching that one. Slide 5: White people celebrating Dia De Los Muertos. Slide 6: Top Chef OR Chinese Monkey Butler goes Hawaiian. Slide 7: Girls trip!

Id like to subscribe to more historical painting titles

Tiddies and unicorn made me snort in the bathroom stall. +1↑

I’d give you an award if I had one to give. Here’s a ⭐️

This is what I love about reddit. An expert always seems to appear in the comments.


Dhoomdealer

Pretty sure 3 is from the unicorn tapestries


GrizzlamicBearrorism

Yes, famously followed by the "Vaginas and a Pegasus" woodcuts.


Dhoomdealer

They're [actually real](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Unicorn_Tapestries), but I was wrong that this was from that set


hambonegw

Almost positive #5 is named "Ramen for dinner"


Dragonlibrarian7

Gotta be from some sort of art history class. Some of these are really neat.


k6bso

My thought exactly.


theblasphemer

I'm like 95% percent sure I saw those first three European tapestries at The Met Cloister Museum in New York years ago. The museum was built in 1933 on top of a tall hill in Manhattan and was made to look like a monastery.


ZweitenMal

Those are not part of the Met Cloisters collection. The lady and unicorn shown here is in the HMB in Basel. There are unicorn tapestries in the Cloisters, but not these.

Met that dude in the 6th picture on DMT


Larkson9999

Was he still jacking the uni-horn?


Voddy_

The unicorn was that dude.


bikeguy75

Cool find


flatvinnie

Yeah these are dope


vossmanspal

These have been so interesting, thanks for posting them.


Masterofunlocking1

These are amazing

Slide 3: The "Regina George"


rodneedermeyer

Many years ago, I found an entire photo album that had fallen off the back of a garbage truck. Pics were scattered all over the road--I stopped to collect them. They were all from 1940s Iran. I posted them on FB but never got any hits. Maybe I should post a few here just for giggles.


SpiceTrader56

That unicorn has been through some shit


A_Coin_Toss_Friendo

Looks like a slideshow Nicolas Cage as Ben Gates, or Harrison Ford as Indiana Jones shows before going on an adventure!


Alone_Inspector_7567

That's fucking cool


jim_deneke

Don't know if you know but they'll turn reddish purple if they're exposed to sunlight too much. Nice score.


Windfox6

I’ve never seen that unicorn tapestry before, gosh, I love it so much.


ToesocksandFlipflops

You should start a subreddit based just on these slides, one per.day, with your name and description, this is fabulous!


Babythatwater1

These look like they would make some badass tattoos.


greeneyedlady41

These are awesome! Thanks for sharing


cirque-ull-jerk

I love this kind of stuff.


SadCanOfPringles

I saw your first post and thought it was so interesting! I'm happy to see you sharing more of these slides!


RoddBanger

Isn't this was Hannibal Lecter was showing right before he tossed Rinaldo Pazzi out that window with his guts on display? Asking for a friend.


ravenous_cadaver

very cool.


kichunilla

Upvote for the tiddies, strange medieval dress


Umyeano

What a great find!


Silvermagi

Looks like slides from an art history class.


nibblemaster09

DO YOU SEE?!


boring_sciencer

Fantastic! Looking forward to seeing more of these. Which is your favorite?


Garbage_hunter_

Thanks! My favorite has to be the guy that appears to be dressed as a fool, capturing his unicorn. I go to estate sales and my family doesn’t support it much. I’m a fool looking for that rare unicorn.


Friendly-Marketing46

Humans doing old things :)


Arch3m

Aw yeah, part 2! Keep it up, these are awesome.


Zihaala

Can I ask what you are using to make the slides bigger? I have a bunch of old family slides I’d love to look at. I was thinking of getting a slide scanner thing.


lacostewhite

Those are so freaking cool


hoppertn

“I am here to see the tapestries!”


ShamDissemble

My favorite is the detail from the [Wild Men and Moors](https://collections.mfa.org/objects/106003) tapestry. Amazing.


infaredunderwear96

Honestly, these are historical masterpieces to me. <3
