If I say to you "This work of art has affected me by its beauty and because it affected me I have learned what is true for me" . It would be unreasonable of you if you responded "You don't know what you are talking about ." You too have experiences to which you have sole privileged access.
Of course there are people who are unaffected by the work of art in question. You probably are sensible to something such as parenthood, or wild nature, or some found object, or boats, or some artistic idiom or other.
