Miss Piggy’s Treasury of Art Masterpieces from the Kermitage Collection is a picture book featuring sixteen (minus the “The Birth of Venus” parody) different muppet parodies of famous artwork, edited by Henry Beard and illustrated by John E. Barrett, and published by Holt, Rinehart and Winston in 1984.

A majority of the illustrations were originally from the Miss Piggy’s Art Masterpiece Calendar which were all reprinted with commentary from Miss Piggy herself and new additions that expanded on the “Kermitage Collection” from the calendar.

illustrations continued:

Henri Rousseau. The Sleepy Zootsy.

Rembrant van Rijn. Arisfroggle Contemplating the Bust of a Twerp.

Jan Vermeer. Young Lady Adorning Herself with Pearls (and Why Not?).

Grant Wood. American Gothique.

Pablo Picasso. Pig Before a Mirror.

Engraved Zippo lighters from the Vietnam War.
