Read Greek tragedies

The woman is very close to the classical beauty, but her curves are still too jagged.

One of the key differences between classical and modern beauty is that modern emphasises sharp angles and exaggerated features, whereas classical prefers soft curves and harmonious features.

Friendly reminder that the Greeks, and most archaic societies, found being overweight a point of attractiveness.
The bust on the right clearly has swollen cheeks that sag against her jawline and the lips of an American 35 year old single mom.

Nope, it's not overweight but perfect weight evidencing perfect healthiness. Her cheeks don't sag, they are perfectly full without being overly full.
It's just that moderns like exaggerated features, e.g. gaunt cheeks, pointed cheekbones.

nah but when I was in middle school/hs I wrote a bunch of poems about how much I wanted to fuck them. and he is not wrong tbqh

this is some grade A shit I unironically wrote when I was around 12 or so

funny enough when I actually got to see some of the shit I was obsessed with when I went to Florence for the first time I just straight up fucking cried like a beta bitch, it was too beautiful and I just felt unworthy
