An ideal man of the 13th Century


 An ideal man of the 13th Century:


“Handsome, with curly blond hair, a high and broad white forehead, black arched eyebrows, laughing dark eyes, a nose as straight as an arrow shaft, well-made ears, a fine and amorous mouth, a slightly cleft chin, straight neck, broad shoulders and chest, powerful muscles, straight knees, arched and graceful feet.”

From “The Romance of Flamenca” an Occitan romance story from the 1200s.
