| Description | The introduction in the shift in meaning of the concept of beauty. The connection of beauty with the appreciation of nature: the idea of beauty was traditionally connected with regularity, proportion and usefulness, utility, etc. In this paper, we would like to show that this connection had already begun to change during the 18th century and that these changes in the aesthetic field were based on an appreciation of nature. |
