In what has quickly become one of the most-memed images of the week, a Polish statue, covered in snow, has taken the Internet by storm after somebody noticed how much it now looks like Darth Vader.

Mashable picked up the story from an Instagram user who was able to provide before and after photos of the statue, which depicts Jakub Wejher, the founder of Wejherowo, Poland.

So, yes, this is basically the Polish version of the Jebediah Springfield statue from The Simpsons.

In the week or so since Miasto Wejherowo posted the second photo, along with his commentary that it resembled Lord Vader, this writer can attest to having personally seen two similar but different jokes about Poland turning to the Dark Side.

Darth Vader will reportedly next appear in Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, coming to theaters in May.
