during times of romanticism, gypsies were considered "exotic, dark, ethnic and beautiful" by europeans. the stereotype of the "dark seducer" was often attached to gypsy women.
Very fine men and very beautiful women are often found among them. Their swarthy complexion, jet black hair, straight well-formed nose, white teeth, dark brown wide open eyes, the general suppleness of their deportment and the harmony of their movements place them high above many European people as regards physical beauty.
