I've got a print of this beauty framed, hanging on my wall.

I have it hung on my wall. It makes me giggle. If anyone has more pictures of this style please do link them.

Where did it come from? I really want a collection of oversized square-ass animals to hang up in my office now.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago

I’ve heard they were commissioned by land owners to show off how big their animals were. So basically like having a really expensive sports car.

Minecraft cow

That's a wall of beef. It's like the painter hadn't ever seen a bull, but just had a vague description and extrapolated.

[–] [email protected] 34 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago) (2 children)

Showing off the giant bulls or hogs bred on your estate was a way for rich English guys to flex back in the early 1800s.

The cow was massive, and the patron wanted the artist to make it look even bigger.

More background on the fad

Now, knowing this information, I love it even more. Thank you!

Why tf do some pages reimplement scrolling in JS?!

[–] [email protected] 15 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago) (1 children)

It's the most wonderful rendition ever. The confused stare is what gets me. Every time.

Funniest shit ever

Hahaha look, it’s Kevin the Beefsquare

[–] [email protected] 17 points 5 months ago (1 children)

This is the quiet moment before the guy on the right sticks his head up its ass to grade the beef

[–] [email protected] 13 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Yep, and you just take his word for it.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 5 months ago

No wait. It's got to be your bull.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 5 months ago (1 children)

I like how one guy is pointing at its ass and the other is clearly taking ass notes

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago (1 children)

And this one counting counts nothings.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago

Obviously pointing at tophat slenderman

[–] [email protected] 9 points 5 months ago

Me: Did you eat my sofa? Cow: nooo

[–] [email protected] 8 points 5 months ago

That’d be a reference absolute unit

[–] arandomthought 6 points 5 months ago

Now let the mathematicians fight over whether you should approximate that as a "let's assume a perfectly spherical cow" or rather as a... cube? A prism?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 5 months ago

I could go for a chonker shank right now.
