Plato's aesthetic theory puts inquiry into art and beauty. Art is a diverse range of human activities in creating visual, performing artifacts, and expressing the author's imaginative mind. Beauty in terms of art refers to an interaction between line, color, texture, sound, shape, motion, and size that is pleasing to the senses For instance an object could be a picture, statue, poem or music but equally could be a mountain or a a rose. According to Kant nature is beautiful because it same as art and that art can be considered beautiful if we are conscious of it. In an illustration, the spider's web glistens in morning dew is as a result of genetics in the spider brain. The web appears lovely to our eyes which is a mere product of the spider. from the instance whether its the spider or human observing, its such a pretty accidents of nature that we do not regard as works of art.

The thesis that aesthetic testimony cannot provide aesthetic justification or knowledge is widely accepted–even by realists about aesthetic properties and values. This Kantian position is mistaken. Some testimony about beauty and artistic value can provide a degree of aesthetic justification and, perhaps, even knowledge. That is, there are cases in which one can be justified in making an aesthetic judgment purely on the basis of someone else's testimony. Hence, most testimony about art does not have much epistemic value.
