11. Art is defined by Aristotle as the realization in external form of a true idea, and is traced back to that natural love of imitation which characterizes humans, and to the pleasure which we feel in recognizing likenesses. It idealizes nature and completes its deficiencies: it seeks to grasp the universal type in the individual phenomenon..
