"جوهر الفن هو التقاط الجمال العابر"

Simplified Meaning:
Art is all about taking something beautiful that doesn't last long and preserving it. Imagine watching a sunset. It's an amazing sight, but it only lasts for a short while. A painter might capture that sunset on canvas, so people can enjoy it forever, even when the real sunset is gone. Like how a photograph can freeze a special moment in time, art can do the same with beautiful things. In our lives, we experience many moments that pass quickly, like a child's laughter or the blooming of a flower. By creating art, we can hold on to these moments and remember their beauty whenever we look at the painting, sculpture, or photograph. This way, we can feel those special moments again and again, long after they have passed.
