Time goes by very fast and the trends, the idols, the idea of the perfect body proportions change, but true beauty is simple and obvious even through the decades. This is probably why we can spend hours looking at the photos of our grandparents. The photos are full of a sense of harmony that makes us feel so calm and good.
We at Bright Side know that our ancestors could have easily become stars of social media or show business if they were young in the 21st century. Look at these photos from all around the world.
