I am not well-versed with artworks and artists, because I find it difficult to immediately understand or appreciate the paints, sculptures, abstract meaning and painting techniques behind the works. I have just heard the knowledge during the art class of junior or senior high school. I think the aesthetic literacy could be nourished by reading extensively on related subjects, visiting art exhibitions or museums. The exhibition "Discovering Degas" highlight the charms of Degas' work. ``` :::info **Member Comment** - The 'paints' should be 'painting' . [name=someone] ::: --- ## Bessy ```! Sir William Burrell was one of the world's foremost art collectors, amassing an impressive collection of over 9,000 artworks during his lifetime. In 1947, he generously donated his extensive collection to the city of Glasgow, creating a significant cultural and artistic legacy for the city. Among the many treasures in his collection, Burrell had a particular affinity for the works of Edgar Degas, a French artist who is prominent for impressionism. ``` :::info **Member Comment** - The first sentense should be based on someone's opinion or wikipedia [name=someone] - e.g. According to Wikipedia, Sir William Burrell was one of the world's great art collectors. ::: --- ## Gary ```! In this case, Deagas was draw a picture about sexual and everyone was judging him by that time. Back to present, most of the people will think that is art, it is not something filthy works. This told us about some art is not getting accepted by people at that time. But at the future, maybe everyone will think it is fine or even it will become a masterpiece. The difference between a work is art or filthy works, is always decided by people values. ``` :::info **Member Comment** - "Back to **the** present" means back to the period of time that is happening now.

This can bring them more opportunities and resources, allowing their works to be widely disseminated and influential. Additionally, artists can concentrate on creation instead of worrying about their livelihood. For cultural heritage, wealthy patrons often donate artworks to public institutions such as museums and galleries. Therefore, cooperation between artists and wealthy people is mutually beneficial. ``` :::info **Member Comment** - One sentence comment.

When it comes to "art", the first impression that comes to mind is the achievement from artist. However, there are no breathtaking works without indefatigable living. Like Auguste Rodin once said, "Beauty is everywhere. It is not that she is lacking to our eye, but our eyes which fail to perceive her." Artists creates no matter sculptures, paintings, tapestries, for a single chance throughout their whole life. I believe that is the reason which makes art dazzling, because it represents a progress from mortal to classic. ``` :::info **Member Comment** - One sentence comment. [name=someone] :::
