The moustache, a facial hair feature that has adorned the faces of men (and some women) throughout history, is more than just a style choice. For men, it is a symbol of masculinity, cultural identity, and social solidarity. Lukas Birk has compiled a veritable anthology of images tracing the moustache through its many evolutions, from ancient civilisations to modern times, revealing the world’s cultural, fashion, and societal trends. From paintings and photographs to sketches and stone carvings, all sorts of famous and lesser-known moustaches are documented. As trends continue to shift, one thing remains certain: the moustache will always be much more than just a patch of hair.
