[This book] offers 100 portraits of women, the beauty of whom could be compared with the ideal of nowadays. The paintings include the well-known and the reputable but also those outstanding for their daintiness in the fine arts.

Leonardo da Vinci, Paul Gauguin, Pablo Picasso, Salvador Dali, Andy Warhol - famous artists, who affected the history of fine arts remarkably, each of them from a different period, preferring a distinct technique and style.
