Introduction
 History of Beauty Â

In 1878 Sir Francis Galton gave a remarkable talk. He’s speaking to the Anthropologic Institute of Great Britain and Ireland known for his pioneering work in human intelligence. Galton is a brilliant polymath. He’s an explorer, an anthropologist, a sociologist, a psychologist, and a statistician. He’s also an eugenist. In this talk, he presents a new technique by which he can combine photographs and produce composite portraits. This technique could be used to characterize different types of people. Galton thinks that if he combines photographs of violent criminals, he will discover the face of criminality. But to his surprise, the composite portrait that he produces is beautiful. Galton’s surprising finding raises deep questions. What is beauty? Why do certain configurations of line color and form excite us so? These questions have been approached using logic and speculation for most of human history. But in the last few decades, scientists have addressed the question of beauty using the ideas from evolutionary psychology and tools of neuroscience. We’re beginning to glimpse the why and how of beauty, at least in terms of what it means for the human face and form. And in the process, we’re stumbling upon some surprises. When it comes to seeing beauty in each other, while the decision is certainly subjective for the individual, it’s sculpted by factors that contribute to the survival of the group. Many experiments have shown that a few basic parameters contribute to what makes a face attractive. This includes averaging, symmetry, and the effects of hormones. Let’s take each one of these in turn. Galton’s finding that composite or average faces are typically more attractive than each face that contributes to the average has been replicated many times. This laboratory finding fits with many people’s intuitions. Average faces represent the central tendencies of a group. People with mixed features represent different populations, and presumably harbor greater genetic diversity and adaptability to the environment. Many people find mixed-race individuals attractive and inbred families less so. The second factor that contributes to beauty is symmetry. People generally find symmetric faces more attractive than asymmetric ones. Development abnormalities are often associated with asymmetries; in plants, animals, and humans, asymmetries often arise from parasitic infections. Symmetry it turns out, is also an indicator of health.
