Genre sorts works by the category of subject matter or purpose they belong to. Wikipedia states, "An object created for principally or entirely functional, religious or other non-aesthetic reasons which has come to be appreciated as art," describing one genre distinct from purely aesthetic work. Browsing by genre groups works that share a subject or purpose.
