Description

Explore the long history of human aesthetics with 100 000 ans de beaute from GALLIMARD. This work examines how the quest for beauty has occupied the human species for over a hundred thousand years, using the human body as its primary medium. Through various lenses, the book looks at body modeling, the definition of beauty standards, skincare, color applications, hairstyles, and ornaments. By studying the relationship between nudity and clothing, the text reveals a language of signs that communicate cultural belonging, gender, era, age, and social status. While the gestures and ideas change across history, the book identifies the universal psychological and social drivers behind the desire to beautify. This is a deep look at how humans have expressed themselves through their appearance throughout time.
