URGENT PLEASE WRITE THIS
Locate three to six (no more!) images from the Net of famous people who are beautiful by today's standards. Identify who these people are. Consider, for instance, female and male media stars and models. Cut and paste the images into your paper with their URLs. If that will not work, provide the URLs (Web addresses) at the top of your paper.
Part A: Compare contemporary "beautiful" people to at least three specific High Renaissance and Mannerist paintings of the human figure found in the text. These historical periods of art are discussed on text pages 647 and 678. The High Renaissance lasted from the mid-1480s through the 1520s. Mannerism developed in the 1520s and lasted to 1600. Include text page numbers where painting images are found. Detailedly discuss the similarities and differences seen in terms of hair, facial features, skin tone, human anatomy shape and development, human anatomy weight, and the like. You might also look at nudity as opposed to the use of clothing accentuated with accessories. (Find both similarities and differences, although one may dominate.)
Part B: Define "human beauty" and discuss whether it is possible or even desirable to have a universal standard of beauty. Why or why not? Be specific.
