From what little I am able to find about Joel Schick’s Muppet art parodies, there is far less meaning behind this painting, or even series of paintings, as they are just that, parodies of many famous paintings, for the sake of parodying them using Muppets to do so. However, this seems to fit better with some images than others. Most significantly, The Persistence of Cookies, a parody of Salvador Dalí’s The Persistence of Memory.
The entire movement that Dalí was involved in, played with the intentional misuse of symbols, including language to negate any message that may be forcefully perceived by the viewer; so
Schick’s disregard for meaning in his use of the pop figures in his recreations, may actually hold great significance where it should
