According to a few famous writers the fine art idea is the origination of the modern time in the West. In other words, “Art” meant approx. the exact thing as the Greek word “techne” which means “skill” in English. In General terms, fine art is "an art which is basically created primarily for intellectual & aesthetic pretensions and is judged for its persuasiveness & beauty, notably, sculpture, drawing, painting, graphics, watercolor, and architecture."

Understanding Human Expression: Art is a fundamental form of human expression, reflecting cultural, social, political, and religious values across time and geography. By studying art history, we gain insights into the ways different societies have communicated their ideas and emotions through visual media.

Appreciating Diversity: Art history encompasses a vast array of styles, techniques, and traditions from around the world. By studying diverse artworks, students gain an appreciation for different cultures, perspectives, and artistic innovations, fostering tolerance and empathy.
Enhancing Critical Thinking: Analyzing artworks involves critical thinking skills such as observation, interpretation, and evaluation. Studying art history encourages students to think critically about visual imagery, symbolism, and artistic techniques, thereby enhancing their analytical abilities.
Inspiring Creativity: Exposure to a wide range of artistic styles and movements can inspire creativity and innovation. Studying art history provides students with a rich visual vocabulary and historical precedents that can inform their own artistic practice and creative endeavors.
Career Opportunities: Knowledge of art history opens up various career opportunities in fields such as museums, galleries, education, publishing, conservation, and cultural heritage management. Many professions value the research, communication, and analytical skills developed through the study of art history.
