PLATO HAD a love-hate relationship with the arts. He must have had some love for the arts， and his influence on western culture generally is a very strong one， and this includes a strong influence on the arts， and on theories of art.
Beauty，Justice， and Circle are all examples of what Plato called Forms or Ideas. For Plato， these Forms are perfect Ideals， but they are also more real than physical objects. He called them "the Really Real"， so art is imitation， and the best human life is one that strives to understand and to imitate the Forms as closely as possible.
