For Edmund Burke, the "aim of art," is the sublime. Kant says that the sublime allows us to remain without fear in a state of security. He splits the sublime into two categories; mathematical and dynamical categories. The first influences our perception and the other tour in relation with a piece of art. I think that at times art in its most raw form is the most powerful form, nature itself may not be art because it wasn't created by us but it's art in that its naturally beautiful and sublime. Sensual delight brings gratification, disinterested enjoyment causes pleasingness and nature can cause both.
