This makes it easy for many people to have access to it and have their own views tainted by the opinion of others. Amiri Baraka, formerly known as LeRoi Jones, wrote about the negative sides to having white critics write on Jazz.

Poe describes the actions seen through the eyes of a senile narrator. The narrator focuses on the old man's eye and determines to commit a conscious act of murder.

Thus, there seems to be a bit of tension between the idea that “beauty is in the eye of the beholder” and the reality of the way we as humans judge art. Kant called this specific tension “the antinomy of taste”, which he used as a jumping off point to develop a complex system of aesthetic judgment.
