Art Defined

"All great art is the expression of man's delight in God's work, not his own."
 
--John Ruskin, Victorian art critic and social commentator

I just thought this was an excellent and succint definition of that which makes art transcend the merely mundane, becoming an amazing spectacle to behold.

Compare this description to what is currently considered "art." Quite a contrast, huh?
