About

Classic Art Loop is a series of TikTok videos in which users pose in ways that imitate art to Bach's piece "St. John Passion 1. Herr, unser Herrscher." The videos, that reached the height of their popularity in July 2019, share several notable aspects like a perfect loop and a dramatic scene in which the user looks over their shoulder to find another more disturbing art character in the distance.
