Beauty is an essential element in life. It is already a reality in Nature's creations but in human life and culture requires deliberate creative enterprise if we are to be capable of reflecting something of the quality of beauty in our own lives and in what we create.In art, beauty is a harmonious quality whether integrated into design in architecture, colour in painting, costuming and music in ballet, harmony and melody in music, or perfection of form in sculpture. It is perceived in the excellence of mechanics, engineering, and rocket science as in the more abstract sciences and mathematics.
