And above that the possession of a work of art increases someone's status. The works of art are meant for everyone, to enjoy them and to feel yourself included in beauty, truth and immortality. A work of art has a universal significance. Just because of this association with reality as a whole it is wrong when a work of art is grabbed by an individual so that it cannot be enjoyed by all the people. In particular this applies to sculptures and pictures because usual there is but one single original of it.
Reproductions are good as an incidental solution but never they can replace an original work of art.
