when you're doing "young royals as works of art" are you watching yr and going "this scene/frame reminds me of this artwork" or are you looking at paintings and going "this painting reminds me of" yr?
thank you so much for all them all as well, its always so interesting :)
First off: thank you!
Second of all, let me tell you a little secret: I've only ever seen each season of YR twice. S1 a few months before S2 aired, S2 when it came out, S1 and S2 in preparation for S3, and then S3 again as part of a watch-along party a few weeks later.
I haven't seen the show since.
WHICH ONLY GOES TO SHOW HOW DEEP THE BRAINROT GOES because it's been years and I can still recall scenes and character arrangements/blocking and colour schemes and costume choices and so on (the mise-en-scène, I believe is the proper term) and be like, "Hey, this kind of reminds me of this painting/sketch/statue..."
And that's how the entire YRxArt series was born!
So to answer your question (in a long-winded way, oops!), it's both "this scene/frame reminds me of this artwork" during my second watches of the show and "this painting reminds me of YR" whenever I visit museums and galleries and stuff.
It's also kind of more like... I have a bunch of favourite art pieces and I have this random Netflix show I can't stop thinking about, and from those two distinct things I sort of made this one-off sandwich?
A PB&J, if you will, where I just went "so that S3 Wilmon embrace reminds me of Gustav Klimt's The Kiss, and that Super Emotional Walk Wille does in S2 reminds me of Caspar David Friedrich's The Wanderer, and can we all please agree that Simon is essentially Bacchus incarnate (at least aesthetically) and Sara is a Pre-Raphaelite muse, and and and....."
And then I just kept making more and more and now there are eighty-odd posts and, frankly, I don't know how to stop.
I don't really want to stop? 👉👈
