Etymology

The word 'artier' derives from the root 'art,' which comes from the Latin word 'ars,' meaning skill or craft. This Latin term evolved through Old French as 'art,' referring to the concept of creativity and skillful execution. The suffix '-ier' indicates a comparative form in English, emphasizing a greater degree or quality. Over time, the use of 'art' in various contexts has expanded, giving rise to terms like 'artistic' and its comparative 'artier.' The emergence of the word aligns with the Renaissance period, a time when art became increasingly celebrated and valued in society, leading to distinctions in levels of artistic expression.
