"Even the most perfect reproduction of a work of art is lacking in one element: its presence in time and space, its unique existence at the place where it happens to be"
"... the sphere of authenticity lies outside the technical..."
"The uniqueness of a work of art is inseparable from its being embedded in the fabric of tradition."
Walter Benjamin, "The Work of Art in the Age of Reproduction" (1935)
