Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel 
The Philosophy of Fine Art (Vol. 1-3) 
Complete Edition

The Philosophy of Fine Art is regarded by many as one of the greatest aesthetic theories to have been produced since Aristotle. Hegel’s thesis about the historical dissolution of art has been the subject of much scholarly debate. Hegel develops his account of art as a mode of absolute spirit that he calls ‘the beautiful ideal.’
