I saw this mentioned in the context of exploring how natural consequences of nature can be beautiful, and by knowing the meaning of the imperfection a beauty is perceived.

“We ought to observe also that even the consequences of things which are produced according to nature contain something pleasing and attractive. For instance, when bread is baked some parts are split at the surface, and these parts which thus open, and have a certain fashion contrary to the purpose of the baker's art, are beautiful in a manner, and in a peculiar way excite a desire for eating.[…] and many other things — though they be far from being beautiful if examined individually — still, because they are consequent upon the things which are formed by nature, help to adorn them, and they please the mind. So that if a man should have a feeling and deeper insight with respect to the things which are produced in the universe, there is hardly one of those which follow by way of consequence which will not seem to him to be in a manner disposed so as to give pleasure. […] And many such things will present themselves, not pleasing to every man, but only to one who has become truly familiar with nature and her works.”

— Marcus Aurelius
