By Pictolic https://pictolic.com/article/our-beautiful-ancestors1.htmlLooking at the photos of the past, we tend to believe that our ancestors were hardly beautiful, the fault of which is the black-and-white tones of old photographs, the abundance of retouching and completely outdated fashion items that once gave its wearer a special chic - sponges with a bow of fashionistas of the 20s, funny bowler hats or awkward top hats of the late 19th and early 20th century, crazy wigs and even more insane frills of the Middle Ages… Meanwhile, the photos from this issue quite convincingly show that human beauty, of course, has always existed. Judge for yourself…
