I do not agree with what Hume says about beauty. My personal favorite work of art out of an entire museum is not necessarily the most beautiful work of art. Giving each piece the same thought and wiping out any prejudice against something on the piece which otherwise may appear as “unattractive” is the only true way to distinguish art works of quality, is something else Hume claims. I strongly agree that the only way to find the “best” work of art is to wipe out any prior prejudice against certain qualities of the piece as Hume says. I do not believe that only certain people have the ability to do this. Everyone, with the proper education and will power, is able to distinguish quality from amateur. 

Any thoughts? Can anyone convince me otherwise?
