This includes all aspects of human creativity, including art.\n\n\n\n<p>Throughout the years, <em>The Simpsons made all sorts of references and takes on various classical artworks. Some of them were obvious, coming in the form of Simpsons-style paintings, while others were easy to miss unless you are an avid art enthusiast.\n\n\n\n<p>Luckily, there is no need to rewatch all <em>The Simpsons episodes to catch the art references you might have missed. An Instagram account, @criminalsimpsons, recently compiled all the art references made in \u201cThe Simpsons.\u201d\n\n\n\n<p>The person behind the account matched the scenes from <em>The Simpsons with the artworks they reference. This includes the show\u2019s take on \u201cThe Garden of Earthly Delights\u201d by Hieronymus Bosch, \u201cThe Dream\u201d by Henry Rousseau, \u201cThe Death of Marat\u201d by Jaques Louis David, and \u201cThe Girl at the Mirror\u201d by Norman Rockwell.\n\n\n\n<p>Check out all the art references made in \u201cThe Simpsons\u201d below and @criminalsimpsons for more.\n\n\n\n</p><blockquote class='\"instagram-media\"' data-instgrm-permalink='\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/DCM8clPyHKU\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\"' data-instgrm-version='\"14\"' style='\"' background: border:0 border-radius:3px box-shadow:0 rgba margin: max-width:540px min-width:326px padding:0 width:99.375 width:-webkit-calc width:calc><div style='\"padding:16px;\"'> <a href="%5C%22https:%5C/%5C/www.instagram.com%5C/p%5C/DCM8clPyHKU%5C/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading%5C%22" style='\"' background: line-height:0 padding:0 text-align:center text-decoration:none width:100 target='\"_blank\"' rel='\"noopener\"'> <div style='\"' display: flex flex-direction: row align-items: center> <div style='\"background-color:' border-radius: flex-grow: height: margin-right: width:> <div style='\"display:' flex flex-direction: column flex-grow: justify-content: center> <div style='\"' background-color: border-radius: flex-grow: height: margin-bottom: width:> <div style='\"' background-color: border-radius: flex-grow: height: width:><div style='\"padding:'> <div style='\"display:block;' height:50px margin:0 auto width:50px><svg width='\"50px\"' height='\"50px\"' viewbox='\"0' version='\"1.1\"' xmlns='\"https:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"' xmlns:xlink='\"https:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xlink\"'><g stroke='\"none\"' stroke-width='\"1\"' fill='\"none\"' fill-rule='\"evenodd\"'><g transform='\"translate(-511.000000,' fill='\"#000000\"'><g><path d='\"M556.869,30.41' c554.814 c553.148 c558.924 c560.59 m541 c535.114 c530.342 c546.887 c551.658 c532.1 c524.886 c549.9 c557.115 m565.378 c565.244 c563.803 c561.058 c557.607 c549.944 c533.003 c525.979 c521.94 c518.846 c517.244 c516.479 c516.448 c516.755 c518.197 c520.942 c524.393 c532.057 c548.997 c556.021 c560.06 c563.154 c564.756 c565.522 c565.552 m570.82 c570.674 c568.659 c564.297 c558.743 c550.169 c532.853 c525.438 c519.376 c514.368 c511.834 c511.035 c511 c511.326 c513.342 c517.703 c523.257 c531.831 c549.148 c556.562 c562.623 c567.633 c570.167 c570.966 c571><div style='\"padding-top:'> <div style='\"' color: font-family:arial font-size:14px font-style:normal font-weight:550 line-height:18px>View this post on Instagram<div style='\"padding:'> <div style='\"display:' flex flex-direction: row margin-bottom: align-items: center><div> <div style='\"background-color:' border-radius: height: width: transform: translatex translatey> <div style='\"background-color:' height: transform: rotate translatex translatey width: flex-grow: margin-right: margin-left:> <div style='\"background-color:' border-radius: height: width: transform: translatex translatey><div style='\"margin-left:'> <div style='\"' background-color: border-radius: flex-grow: height: width:> <div style='\"' width: height: border-top: solid transparent border-left: border-bottom: transform: translatex translatey rotate><div style='\"margin-left:' auto> <div style='\"' width: border-top: solid border-right: transparent transform: translatey> <div style='\"' background-color: flex-grow: height: width: transform: translatey> <div style='\"' width: height: border-top: solid border-left: transparent transform: translatey translatex> <div style='\"display:' flex flex-direction: column flex-grow: justify-content: center margin-bottom:> <div style='\"' background-color: border-radius: flex-grow: height: margin-bottom: width:> <div style='\"' background-color: border-radius: flex-grow: height: width:><p style='\"' color: font-family:arial font-size:14px line-height:17px margin-bottom:0 margin-top:8px overflow:hidden padding:8px text-align:center text-overflow:ellipsis white-space:nowrap><a href="%5C%22https:%5C/%5C/www.instagram.com%5C/p%5C/DCM8clPyHKU%5C/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading%5C%22" style='\"' color: font-family:arial font-size:14px font-style:normal font-weight:normal line-height:17px text-decoration:none target='\"_blank\"' rel='\"noopener\"'>A post shared by Criminal Simpsons (@criminalsimpsons)\n<script async src="%5C%22%5C/%5C/www.instagram.com%5C/embed.js%5C%22"><\/script>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Simpsons is one of the most iconic TV shows ever made.
