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

[–] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 29 points 1 year ago

Ahhh... A squeep.

This has to be same artist, hasn't it?

[–] monsterpiece42@reddthat.com 3 points 1 year ago

Looks like it. His name is William Henry Davis

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.

[–] hperrin@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year 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

[–] Geek_King@lemmy.world 31 points 1 year ago (2 children)

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.

[–] deegeese@sopuli.xyz 34 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year 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?!

[–] ObviouslyNotBanana@lemmy.world 15 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

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

[–] nifty@lemmy.world 28 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Hahaha look, it’s Kevin the Beefsquare

Funniest shit ever

[–] Blackout@kbin.run 17 points 1 year ago (1 children)

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

[–] watson387@sopuli.xyz 13 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yep, and you just take his word for it.

[–] gdog05@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago

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

[–] Iheartcheese@lemmy.world 10 points 1 year ago (1 children)

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

[–] MonkderDritte@feddit.de 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

And this one counting counts nothings.

Obviously pointing at tophat slenderman

[–] halvar@lemm.ee 9 points 1 year ago

Me: Did you eat my sofa? Cow: nooo

[–] AllNewTypeFace@leminal.space 8 points 1 year ago

That’d be a reference absolute unit

[–] aeronmelon@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

I could go for a chonker shank right now.

[–] DJDarren@thelemmy.club 5 points 1 year ago (3 children)

Absolute rectangle

Here is an alternative Piped link(s):

He's a big big boy

Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.

I'm open-source; check me out at GitHub.

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?
