Accidental Renaissance

AccidentalRenaissance is for photos that look like Renaissance paintings.

This means that they look like Renaissance art in their composition, their coloring, their saturation, the angle of the scene, the types of settings, etc.

๐Ÿ‘‰ Must be a photo. Not a meme, drawing, art, ai-generated or ai-enhanced image, screenshot, low-effort post, meta posts, video, or anything else but a photo.

๐Ÿ‘‰ Must be SFW. No gore, porn, extreme violence, blood, corpses, or similarly disturbing content. Absolutely no pornography, even if it's "tasteful".

๐Ÿ‘‰ Comments must be civil. No slurs of any kind or using words to insult, demean, harass, or abuse other individuals or groups.

๐Ÿ‘‰ The Renaissance part (not the photo itself) must be accidental to the photograph. In other words, no photos of Renaissance fairs, people dressed in medieval/Renaissance clothes, etc.

๐Ÿ‘‰ NO influencer selfies, professional photoshoots with watermarks, any type of OnlyFans-like content. We are not the place to work your side-hustle.

๐Ÿ“ธ If you know who the photographer is, give them credit in the comment section. This is the only type of self-promotion we allow.

๐Ÿ‘ฉโ€๐Ÿฆฏ Alt-Text for vision-impaired users in the post body or in the comments is highly encouraged. Just pretend you are describing a photo to someone on the phone.

You're probably joking but since my internet sarcasm detector blew up I still feel obliged to tell you, its probably rather about the foreground versus background.

thats how my brain subconsciously interpreted the two guys before the background registered consciously

Adding a /s or /j helps indicate if you're being sarcastic or joking with ease.
