I decided to see how an image-to-text generator (CLIP Interrogator 2.4) paired with a text-to-image generator (Stable Diffusion 2.1) performed at recreating some of the great historical art. I gathered 68 pieces of art from a variety of styles, movements, and artists that are all considered great works of art. I do not claim, however, that this selection is comprehensive. I then submitted the art to CLIP Interrogator 2.4. If the prompt contained the exact name of the artwork, I modified the prompt to exclude it, but I did not exclude the names of artists. I then submitted these prompts to Stable Diffusion 2.1 and accepted the first output.
Here are the results (in no particular order).
