Summary

This quote suggests that while art can indeed imitate nature, it also has the power to go beyond mere replication. Art has the ability to fill the gaps or shortcomings found in the natural world. It can provide a sense of wholeness, enhancement, or even correction to what nature lacks. By utilizing human creativity and imagination, art has the capacity to embellish and perfect what nature may have left unfinished or insufficient. In this way, art serves to enhance our understanding and appreciation of the world around us.
