The Work of Art In The Age of Mechancial Reproduction

''Even the most perfect reproduction of a work of art is lacking in one element: its presence in time and space, its unique existence at the place where it happens to be"

I think this passage means that its hard to remake a art piece because you can never fully grasp that particular moment when it was created. And what makes it so different is because it can never be made again in the way it was first made.

The reason I chose this passage is I feel that things cant be remade in the way it was the first time. Its hard to capture those feelings and thoughts you had when that picture was first made.

  1. Arts of history are unique, and cannot be replaced. People have lost the perception of nature arts and their aura. “The Work of Art in the Age of Mechanical Reproduction," the true is the modernization change people view, for example when you take a picture of a place, things or person, it just a picture . On the other hand, when you see a painting, you see something unique and history involve.
