The account was dreamed up in November 2016 by art history students Chloe Esslemont, Elise Bell and Mayanne Soret, who met at Edinburgh University.

Bell told Vox that they hoped to make art history “less scary, less intimidating, less classist” and bring it to a wider range of people.

Esslemont says that they set out to prove that ‘vapid’ pop culture could easily intersect with ‘high art’:

Basically our motto. Keep up the good work, gals.
