do you agree the arts constitute one of the oldest and most important means of expression developed by man or woman?

The correct answer is "It is best described as an anecdote".

We consider an anecdote to be a personal account or retelling of a particular event or incident. The key word here is "personal". In the example given, we clearly see how the point of view is from the protagonist of a certain personal experience he had and the way he felt about it, constituting it as an anecdote.

We don't know for a fact Utopians don't care about riches, because we're only getting a single man's experience which in addition, cannot be proven.

An analogy recquires some sort of strong comparisson of metaphor that isn't really present in this excerpt.

Hope this helps!
