I am not an expert in these matters, but I believe that certain chemicals or liquids which are used for cleaning pictures are made from one or other of these sugars. We wanted to make the Clause as wide as possible, and that is why the word "art" has been inserted. Certain liquids are used for artistic purposes. There is nothing sinister here about the use of the word "art."
