Everybody else seems to be obsessed with taking pictures of themselves with their smartphones wherever they go, so why wouldn't those handsome statues we see in museums and art galleries want to do the same?
They were long considered visual examples of physical perfection, and people have been ooing and aahing about how lifelike they look for centuries, so Redditor Jazus_ur_lookin_well decided it was time for these marble hunks and beauties to join this self-obsessed scene.
He came up with the idea while visiting the Crawford art gallery in Cork, Ireland, as he realized these handsomely sculpted men were just dying to share their good looks with the world, so with a clever positioning of the camera the statue selfie was born!
