CONCERNING PHYSICAL BEAUTY.

What an Old Painter Said to = Chicago
KepOrter-An Artistic vi~w.
The old painter rambled along pleasantly
until the scribe abruptly asked:
"What is beauty, professorf'
"BeautyT he exclaimed, astonished - U
the question had been the simplest ona
"Why, the human figure IL the most truly
beautiful work OF creation, just an the 0recian
temple Is the most scientific specimen Of art
Beauty in the abstracti Uniformity and
variety give rise to two distinct kinds Of
beauty, according to the predominancs Of
one or the other Of these principles in the
object. There ID symmetrical and Q pict-
uresque beauty. The former may be taught
according to what one may call geometrical
rules. The latter class Of beauty, while per-
ceived by the generality Of mankind and
making its effect felt, can only be produced
in works Of art by men Of genius The high
est degree Of perfection is the result Of an
equal balance Of both classes Of beauty.
Now, the nude human figure well developed
Ii an example Of this, because the symmet-
rical beauty hears to the picturesque beauty
an apparently equal ratio. For instance, the
lateral halves are perfectly uniform to the
eye, and the principal divisions in a really
beautiful form ought to have certain rslar
uonA to each other.
'Thus, from the crown Of the head to .
line, which In the terrestrial globe would be
called the equator, Is one-half Of the whols
length From the thigh joint to the knes
Joint, from the latter to the heel, and from
the elbow joint to the end Of the longest
finger il each one fourth Of the whole length.
From the crown Of the head to the chin u
one-eighth, and from the elbow joint to the

The symmetrical beauty Of the facial sur
face, when viewed In full front, shows similar
, kinds Of proportions Upon the conjuga

= ut is entirely different with the picturesqu
beauty Of the human form. There are in th
,. irst place light, shade and color secondly

forms of the external muscles and the change

Il and motions of the members to which thes
muscles belong, and IN the third place ther

some Of the school teachers tell. One boy in
the Summer avenue school, In the Eighth

North America with those Of Europe" At
