こんにちは 芸術 と美術の違いについて 芸術と美術は英語で言えば 全部 art ですね 美術は 絵のart です 例えば Leonardo da Vinci's paintings 彼の絵は美術作品です 芸術 も artですね 芸術とは演劇、美術、文芸、音楽などを指す つまり 芸術はいろんな art 美術は絵のart だけです。

My pleasure.

Thank you Ueda, it has been very helpful! :)

"美術" is what is called "fine arts", while "芸術" is art in general. In other words, the former is a part of the latter. ／The definition of "美術" is, however, not that limited. "美術" usually means not only "絵画" but also "彫刻", "版画", etc. It could sometimes include many other visual artistic expressions such as "書", "建築", "工芸", "写真", and so on. ／On the contrary, you usually more often say "芸術作品" rather than "美術作品" even if it is categorized in "美術". In that case, "芸術作品" would sound more like a native speaker of Japanese.
