Plato was a educated philosopher of his time. Many people had follow some of his ideas and views. Artislo who was one of his follows teaching, but he also had a issues and disagreement about his teacher theories. Artwork is all around us. We see it everyday. During Platos time their artwork was more orginnal and inspiring. Most painting after platos time were more copies of objects such as "the girl with the pearl earring" that was a copy of a real form.

People put time and effort into their creation whether it will be their own originally or if it a copy of a real form object.
