If the Eiffel Tower inspired so many other artistic works, can it be seen as a higher form of art? Whereas most art is inspired by other things, the Tower is in itself a marvelous structure that millions go to see yearly. And it is such an iconic piece of history and architecture  – one cannot see a film set in France without the Tower making an appearance. So, is the Eiffel Tower perhaps a little “better” than other, less-lauded works? If so, to what degree and why? Can it be considered a sort of master work?
