A humorous historical art meme featuring a self-portrait of Italian Renaissance painter Federico Barocci, circa 1600. The painting shows an older, balding man with a gray beard, serious expression, and an elaborate white ruffled collar against a dark background. Large pink text outlined in black reads: "I intended to publish my book about the Black Death, but I was accused of plaquerism." The joke is a pun combining "plagiarism" with "plague," referencing the Black Death pandemic. The image includes a small "MEME ME Rdg Sp8" watermark and the date 10/09/26.
