Beauty for the sake of beauty

Does it not make sense to create/appreciate a picture for the sake of it being pretty. Isn't a picture's aesthetic quality enough to make it worthy. A picture might be great because of its subtext, context and culture but I argue that aesthetics are equal to all these.

Art that functions on a purely aesthetic level is just as important and beautiful as any other piece.
