What is highbrow?

I have an idea of what lowbrow is, i.e. fart jokes, /bodyfluids/, early comicbooks, pure entertainment.

And I understand middlebrow as "the high of the low", things that are only deep in relation to their tradition, for example Watchmen, Fahrenheit 451, Dark Souls, Bioshock, Kubrick.

But I can't think of any examples of highbrow. Could Lolita count as such?
