The Best Star Wars and Classic Art Mashups

It is fascinating how people combine two products of culture that are so different – classic art and Star Wars. Here you will find the best (in our opinion) Star Wars art mashups – and the force is strong with these ones, hmm.

1. Darth Vader as Woman with a Parasol

Here you can check out our supreme quality DailyArt Print with Monet’s Woman with a Parasol!

2. Senator Amidala Doubts in M-Maybe

Star Wars Art: Thomas Bergmann, Padme Waitings after Roy Lichtenstein. Artist’s website.

You may not know that Roy Lichtenstein was actually inspired by old masters such as Johannes Vermeer! Seems that there is always a Master and a Padavan in the art world, don’t you think?

3. R2-D2 and Leia Chilling in Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte

4. Darth Vader Crossing the Alps

You must have known this iconic depiction of Napoleon – but what about Leonidas at Thermopylae? Click here to read the fascinating story behind David’s painting.

5. Yoda with Bandaged Ear and Pipe

Some call Van Gogh the master of “selfies”. He indeed did a lot of self-portraits which helped him develop his style and documented the life of the great Master.

6. Quite alive C3PO as Dead Marat

7. X-wing Flying through Starry Night Over Rhone

This magnificent work is one of the most beautiful nocturnal paintings that you need to know!

8. Baby Yoda and Mandarolian in Byzantine Mosaic

A Bar at The Folies Bergère is considered the last of Manet’s paintings and shows a scene from one of the Paris bars – commonplace for artists to hang out and look for inspiration.

10. Blank Skywalker

Of course one of the artworks by the Surrealist painter René Magritte served as the perfect inspiration for a Star Wars art piece!
