Bwahaha, never even noticed before

Summed up perfectly.

This description is priceless!!!! LMAO

Or the artist who draws Where's Waldo?

The first one is literally a dickface

The little boy on her lap looks so bored

The upper one is lovely

I would be unhappy too if I was trying to sit on the bench and enjoy my alone time and some random guy started hitting on me

I don't know why my comment was down voted? I'm a queer woman myself, queer is a perfectly normal academic word to use (there's queer studies, queer literature studies, queer film studies). Queer is simply an umbrella term like the LGBT, only queer encompasses only sexualities while LGBT encompasses gender identities as well. I'm a queer woman and I'm attracted to women. Michelangelo was a queer man and he was attracted to men. The reason I don't use the word homosexual is because he never specified his sexuality and I don't feel comfortable assigning a specific sexuality for someone unless they have specified it themselves. Hopefully this clears it up for some of you 😊

Manet, after some glasses of wine

Except some of Monet has figures

Imagine being able to come up with something so simple to execute as this and convincing everyone it is great art worth lots of money.

So... little naked people is Bosch, little clothed people is Bruegel, got it!!!

These descriptions are spot-on. :D

What butts have you seen? These are normal to small sized butts.

It's to depict gods and goddesses as they were decadent and powerful, not like the mortal plebs they ruled over, plump equals wealth and beauty., skinny equals poor and unattractive. Oh and of course they have to be butt naked!

"Rubenesque" used to be a compliment!

Enormous asses? Really disappointed in you Bored Panda. Why haven't you commented on the tiny penises in Michelangelo? Is that comment by any chance touching a sensitive subject about men's bodies? This is clear cut sexism... very disappointed.

Oh, to have lived when big asses were in vogue!

Some of these paintings make me wonder. Did people really just prance around naked a lot more than these days? Or was it more of a forbidden fruit -kind of situation? And yes, those aren't exactly enormous butts.

Ok, they aren't the butt enhanced Kardashians but they got butts. Better 'n mine!

Big, beautiful women unite! Ruben painted real women with big butts, thighs, tummies and breasts. In his day it!, it was the norm. I call myself Rubenesquej. 😊

The young lady in the upper painting seems to suffer from Hallux valgus (hammer toe). The one on the right in the lower picture, seems to have undergone a breast preserving cancer operation. But I guess those weren't invented yet... :D

I find these body types actually very beautiful, it's sad that today we only consider one body type beautiful, there are so many of them to admire also I saw some people saying those are plus sized woman, in very good intentions but for me these are just woman who aren't skinny but also aren't fat, like, regular woman?? mainly the girl in the first painting, I think we are starting to see anyone that is not skinny as fat

Wait a minute, I didn't give him permission to paint me in the nude!

Well, there is a description of curvy, plus size woman: they have shapes by Rubens

"I like big butts.........."

At my age now I'm a Rubens woman including the long hair that won't stay in place.

@2wheel the woman on the left does look very muscular in the arm/chest area. Of course I didn't think about the hard workers. But then again I never would've thought painters would paint people from the lower classes.

Or the Kardashian's personal painters.

Lol! He is so spot on!

Rubens seemed to always paint plump. Plump cherubs is another example of his perspective.

Rhodes ARE HUGE

Seymour Butts

Yesssss!

Hence the term "Ruben-esque" for curvy women.

Little in the middle, but she got much back! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X53ZSxkQ3Ho

He's an a*s man.

This is so awful who wrote this garbage?

I like big butts ....

This painter has clearly never seen a real naked women before. Ever. He's that lame.

Description forgot to add that there must be monkeys present, and shadow mustaches.

Not to mention very long fingers and manicured finger nails.
