The Carter Family Portrait Gallery is a hilarious blog that superimposes the faces of Queen B, King Jay and their precious offspring onto some of the most iconic works of art known to man.
The blog describes itself, in jest, by saying it's dedicated to "Vivid snapshots of the life and times of The Carters - Jay Z, Beyoncé, and little Blue Ivy - as captured by their official portrait artist." The latest batch of images include Johannes Vermeer's 'Girl With A Pearl Earring' and Grant Wood's 'American Gothic.'
We don't need a piece of art to know that Beyonce and Jay-Z are pop royalty, but it's nice to see them being treated as such nonetheless. I only hope that Blue Ivy gets a chance to see these when she's older!
