angry, less than 1% neutral, and not surprised at all. Another thing that the
researchers did was the faces of ten women of Mediterranean ancestry were used
to create a composite image of a neutral expression. The researchers compared
the composite image and the painting. They got six emotions: happiness,
surprise, anger, disgust, fear and sadness.
