So painters just wanted to make things that were perfect and beautiful or that really impressed you and like a sublime object.

Yeah, it definitely can go in waves. There was an initial wave in the early 20th century that had to do with new technologies, like new printing technologies, so you could do color photographs and newspaper comic supplements and the era of mass production. And we're in the midst, I think, of another boom in cuteness that was caused by the internet and social media.

Studies, some studies have shown that women seem to be a bit more sensitive to cuteness, which is not really surprising because I think that cuteness is really part of girls and young women's culture. But on the other hand, the studies also show that men have sensitivity to cuteness as well. So it's really a mixed thing that appeals to all genders.
