Show Beauty Standards Set Forth by Great Artist To be beautiful a woman must have seven certain qualifications. And these seven little items, listed by the classic Spanish painter Velasquez Velas-quez of the Sixteenth century, are: White, black, red, slender, little, broad and soft. According to Velasquez's Velas-quez's standard, to be beautiful a woman must possess : white skin, teeth and hands ; black eyes, eyebrows eye-brows and eyelids; red cheeks, lips and nails; slender body, arms and legs ; small teeth, ears and feet ; soft hair, lips and hands; and a broad breast, forehead and root of the nose. Perhaps it will . give his "beauty standard" a little more weight if we add that Diego Rodriguez Velasquez was the head of the Spanish school of painting and was one of the greatest great-est painters the world has ever known. He lived from 1509 to 1GG0. That was a long time ago, but his beauty guide still seems to hold true. Of course they didn't have platinum blondes in those days, silly !
