Why don't any comics or cartoons aspire to sublime beauty the way great painters throughout history have?

Comics are made by 3 different artists all overwriting the previous artists work on figures directly, antithetical to how old masters would have worked, all across a month on multiple comics most likely to survive, and did so on pulp papers that did not initially allow for much detail, nor did good art used to sell.
Tldr a whole bunch of reasons.

If your pic was put in a modern comic, cartoon or video game, she would be called an ugly tranny

Anime and manga are the inheritors of classical art.

Unironically closer in terms of how guild studios produced works than modern Mutt companies so it's expected the material conditions are closer to the works that had similar ones than westerners who inherited nothing and refuse to go back to those times because it would be too communist.

Animation IS fine art.

No.

Because you don't watch or read them.

Short answer:
The invention of photography killed a lot of the demand for realism.
>>
>>150122127
Because those great painters took months or even years to make most of their paintings. You can't just shit out a comic like that let alone a cartoon. Loving Vincent required a whole host of artists to make and STILL took 6 full years.

>>150122127
Comics are unable to. Cartoons however do do that sometimes. Look at Tangled the Series.
>>
>>150122127
Because until 1995 the printing process only allowed for 4 colors.
Jesus you're fucking stupid. How can you be so obsessed with something and have no idea how it's made?
