Interesting fact about perceive beauty in human face:
- It can be mathematically define
- The left side of ones face is usually consider as more beautiful as it is more expressive!

So it is not just in the eye of the beholder, lol.

- The left side of ones face is usually consider as more beautiful as it is more expressive!

Interesting that it's the left side. Is there a reference source to that theory? I'll have to do more observation...

That video proved to me ( my humble opinion) that, while the left side may be the most beautiful and expressive side, the eyes have it! Couldn't believe how the eyes came through on all of them, with the exception of the very end....can't get a hold on modern art.

Actually only 18 portraits show on the video favor the right side

How do they figure that its females in Western Art? I didn't see a single cowgirl amongst them. :biggrin:

Disturbing in some ways. Especially the modernist stuff at the end. I started out being surprised at how closely all of the women resembled each other, but that soon passed!
