What Is Beauty?
According Dr. Michael Persky, in his presentation, titled "What is Beauty?" at the Global Aesthetics conference in 2019 in Miami, Florida, it is inherent for humans to notice beauty. But he also discussed the difference between subjective and objective perceptions of beauty.
He said that the subjective side defines beauty depending on the person one is talking to, Dermatology Times reports. Some would say that beauty is in the eye of the beholder or that beauty is skin-deep or that it is a feeling.
On the other hand, an objective view of beauty uses the golden ratio to measure it. The golden ratio is often referenced in its use in art and is also known as the ratio of beauty with a mathematical ratio of 1:1.618.
Scientifically, Persky said that Bella is the most beautiful woman in the world with the right proportions around her eyes, cheeks, and mouth.
A 2018 study published in Aesthetic Plastic Surgery has examined quantitative evidence of using the golden ratio to create beauty and concluded that it is indeed both subjective and objective.
Despite having the perfect symmetry as dictated by the golden ratio, it is not that easy to establish what truly constitutes quantitative beauty perhaps because beauty is truly in the eyes of the beholder and even with the subject too.
