Introduction

Beauty is frequently defined as a subjective quality of things that makes those objects enjoyable to see. Such objects may include sunsets, landscapes, art and humans. Beauty, along with individual taste and culture, is the prevailing theme of aesthetics, another of the many branches of applied philosophy.

Philosophy of beauty has long been in dispute. Descartes, in his statement “I think therefore I am,” raised the idea that all ideas are self-contemplations. According to him, knowledge and its certainty could be established by seeing and feeling certain things, with the result that these notions can be objective and therefore truthful. According to Russell, the word beauty means something altogether different from Descartes’ idea of beauty because it signifies something subjective and aesthetic. According to him, beauty consists in the emotion or disposition in the face of beauty.
