'Art' For Art's Sake?

Would you 'Adam and Eve' (believe) it? A 'Black Eye Friday' image of three police arresting a drunken man in Swansea's notorious Wind Street, has been likened to Renaissance Art (https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2023/dec/24/photo-of-swansea-police-arresting-drunk-likened-to-renaissance-art). The photo has gone viral online, with some folk claiming it deserves a spot between the Mona Lisa and the Venus de Milo in the Louvre. Now that's what you call hyperbole ('over the top')! It's an interesting image but presumably entirely unstaged. Anyhow, you see things like this, down in Wind Street, on most term time Friday nights!
