Article response

I thought it was quite interesting to know that replicas of original works were created by pupils as practice. The article went on too explain the history of replicating art....how it started with founding and stamping, then it moved to lithography, then photography and finally film. I never thought of photography and film as a form of replication till I read this article. 
Why is replication such an important topic? Who takes the time to write an article about it? 

Tradition is also an intriguing topic. Tradition varies from place to place, it molds into the idea of culture. It also changes throughout history as stated in the article, it is "extremely changeable". I would agree..
