This review examines the changing interpretation of obesity in art throughout history. From prehistoric times, where weight symbolized fertility and abundance, to modern periods where it was linked to morality, sin, or decadence, art has mirrored evolving societal views on the human body. These representations reflect shifts in cultural, social, and economic values, illustrating how perceptions of health, beauty, and morality have transformed through time. By analyzing art, we gain insight into how different eras defined the human body, highlighting art's crucial role in shaping and reflecting these changing interpretations.
