• Description

  The Story of Beauty This book recounts the stories of beautiful women throughout Chinese and international history, embodying people's ideals of beauty. From Xi Shi (Washing Silk) to Farewell My Concubine, from Zhaojun's journey to the Golden House to the Concubine, from Cleopatra to Empress Wu Zetian... these stories inspire admiration, wonder, envy, sighs, and even regret. The beauties we know of are, in fact, the imaginations and expectations of beauty shared by people throughout the ages. This kind of imagination and expectation is our discovery and creation of beauty; coupled with the famous works of painters, we hope that readers will follow the footsteps of history and discover and create the real beauty in life together.
