Women through the ages Posted: 5 months ago by hypnotode
Three-minute video morphs between images from 500 years of female portraits in Western art. Hard to describe, but worth a look.

Wonderful post!
I'd still be more interested if it were focusing on bodies and not just faces. I think women tie a lot more of their self-esteem into society's definition of what body type is attractive than face type.

weeerd. That looks to be because the artists favored using models with a rounder, more "feminine" shape to the faces.
For me, the video was most interesting in the last 30 seconds when the impressionistic and surrealistic art started taking hold.
