No exact definition of art exists because it has been based on beauty
Drawn from what Leo Tolstoy said
What Leo Tolstoy actually said
- Leo Tolstoy Russian novelist and moral philosopher (1828 to 1910)
Therefore, however strange it may seem to say so, in spite of the mountains of books written about art, no exact definition of art has been constructed. And the reason of this is that the conception of art has been based on the conception of beauty.
