Immanuel Kant's version of disinterested pleasure holds that the pleasure one obtains from viewing a work of art does not depend on any desire the viewer may have, and is therefore derived only from the work itself (Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy 2013 ). In this version, “interested” means seeing an object or work of art with a motive to satisfy one's sensory (such as eating or drinking) or practical (such as using an object to fulfill a moral duty) desire (Brady 1998 , p. 100). This version can hardly be considered an oxymoron because selfless pleasure occurs in everyday life. For example, suppose an individual enters his friend's house for the first time and, after noticing a painting, experiences a feeling of absolute happiness and pleasure because he believes the painting is beautiful. In this example, the individual clearly experiences disinterested pleasure, as he did not intend to see the painting for any purpose and derived pleasure only from viewing it
