Art: Its Laws, and the Reason for Them: Collected, Considered and Arranged: For General and Educational Purposes (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Synopsis
This book explores the ideas behind our cultural perception of beauty and the different ways it has been epitomized over time. It examines the ancient Greek concept of beauty as the ideal representation of human form and explores the theory that through evolution, universally appealing features have been selected for as being aesthetically most pleasing. The author contrasts this with modern understandings of physical beauty, drawing examples from across the globe to illustrate how beauty standards are ever evolving and culturally dependent.
