CONCEPT
OF
BEAUTY
"BEAUTY" TO PHILOSOPHERS
DAVID HUME
According to David Hume, beauty is an

impression rather than an idea. It is not a
quality of the object or person to which it is
attributed, instead, beauty is a descriptive
quality formed by the mind of the observer.
DAVID HUME
ST. AUGUSTINE
Beauty, traditionally, was among the

ultimate values along with goodness, truth
and justice.
St. Augustine asked whether things were

beautiful because it gave delight, or
whether it gave delight because it was
beautiful
ST. AUGUSTINE
FRANCIS HUTCHENSON
Hutcheson claims that there are pleasures that

accompany complex ideas of objects, and
informs us that “the word beauty is taken for
the idea raised in us, and a sense of beauty is
our power of receiving this idea”
"The perception of beauty does not depend on

the external sense of sight"
FRANCIS HUTCHENSON
