The Spirit of Beauty

L'esprit de la Beauté (The Spirit of Beauty) - What is beauty ? Is it innate or does it emerge just from care or from artifices like make-up or costumes? Can one objectively define it or does it remain subjective? Isn’t it only a reflection of seduction, the first motivation of a man and a woman, and an incentive to modify your body and face? A book to know all about it!
