A Less Starry Night for Plato
Starry Night is a renowned piece of art work. In my opinion, it just portrays a lesser version of the true Starry Night. In the belief that all art is a mere copy of an ideal and perfect starry night in which only exists outside of our human realm, I deem this painting pathetic. The actual atmosphere of night invokes a peaceful feeling. This painting is the third copy of an ideal night. Perhaps, if this artist knew of the ideal piece of art only located in another realm, then he would focus his attentions on something he could improve in the world. This artist should have pursued a more respectable profession, such as politics or teaching and not painting lesser copies of an ideal night.
