This is quite easy to do, but the results can be off in funny ways. For example, try putting this into SD with Euler a sampling and a cfg scale of 10:
"The Night Watch, a painting made by Rembrandt in 1642"
It generates a convincing low-res imitation about half the time, but it also has a tendency to make the triband flag into an American flag, or put an old ship in the background, or replace the dark city arch with a sunset...
If you keep refining the prompt, you can get closer, but at that point you're just describing what the painting should look like, rather than asking the model to recall an original work.
