The definition
of art has generally fallen into (3) categories:
representation
expression
form.
Plato first developed the idea of art as which, in Greek, means copying or imitation
Mimesis
became important during the Romantic Movement with artwork expressing a definite feeling, as in the sublime or dramatic.
