The Judgment of the Beautiful

• What kind of judgment are we giving when we say,
  that is a beautiful painting?
• Kant argues that such aesthetic judgments must
  have four distinguishing features disinterested,
  necessary, universal, and purposive without a
  purpose.

Judgment of beauty

• Instead of believing that beauty is in the eye of
  the beholder, man would argue their opinion
  making everyone else agree with them. Kant argued
  that having these types of feelings towards your
  aesthetic judgments is part of common sense, and
  that there was no objective thing that could make
  an object beautiful.
• Beauty is the form of purposive ness of an
  object, so far as this is perceived in it without
  any representation of a purpose.
