Art Projector Caption This The adolescent Bacchus 1
1. Sip Some Wine With Bacchus
Caravaggio's picture of the notorious god of wine and revelry is as deep and rich as your favourite red. Share a glass with mythology's best drinking buddy.
Make sure to enjoy responsibly, though. Bacchus is the baddest of bad influences!

2. Get some help in the kitchen
Joachim Wtewael's kitchen maid is getting to grips with a bunch of delicious-looking ingredients, and could help out with that signature dish of yours.
In the background of Wtewael's picture you can see a biblical scene taking place - Christ visiting the house of Mary and St Martha. A true chef wouldn't let anything distract them!

3. Game Night
Invite some of Caravaggio's card sharps over for a high-stakes game.
Watch their prying eyes, though. They might not be playing fair...
Art Projector Captions This El Greco
4. White Hot Fashion
El Greco, an important painter of the school of Mannerism, painted this young boy blowing on a glowing ember. But he could instead help you dry your nails.
It's a Mannerist manicure!

5. Changing Rooms with Artemisia
The baroque genius Artemisia Gentileschi painted herself as the Allegory of Painting, the physical embodiment of art.
