Abstract

An important feature of the work of art is the imitation of nature. It is important to mention that art does not imitate nature by creating a series of identical phenomena that repeat themselves; art imitates without repetition, without creating a set of identical copies of the same natural object. To the extent to which art imitates but does repeat nature, it opposes it. At the same time, the work of art is self-sufficient in the sense of a “world”, a whole that needs to be evaluated according to its own criteria.
