Is Chess a Beautiful Game ?

When players say "it's a beautiful combination", or "I think chess is beautiful" - well, I don't get it. I can see it being somewhat beautiful if you beat a computer....but another person...hey, they can get angry at you, at themselves, frustrated, etc. I don't find that beautiful for them.

I guess I'm just getting sick and tired of hearing that "Chess is a beautiful game !". And I understand MCS157 that most 30+ games are unique and that, like painting, they're all unique. I just think beautiful is the wrong word - BY FAR.

Thank you Faraz !....That's very sweet and charming of you....you just made my day !....and yes I do remember you....and I hope you understand how I felt last week......

@markgravitygood -
dont take it out on me because youre bitter and still angry at some woman....I didnt do anything to you....and 25 years ?...youre probably a fossil - old and out of touch !
Yes its beautiful knowledge destroys beauty and stll planst the seeds for new beauty. Chess is awesome

Why do you think that? Do you think calling a painting or a song beautiful is weird? Do you think it should only apply to people maybe?
It's used a lot on all kinds of stuff: Beautiful pass by Gerrard/that song is beautiful/aww look at your baby, he's so beautiful/Beautiful combination by Mayweather/He proposed to her with a beautiful poem/Kasparov got a beautiful position after Bxh7
I don't see the problem really, why don't you like that word related to chess?
Chess is awesome its Almost like a craft, like a swordmaster is happy making a good sword, People like Playing Good Games or make good

yes im fine.....I guess i just feel bad for the losing side - esp when they look dissappointed. Everyone has been making really good points - but im just having trouble getting over the losing side calling it beautiful. when noone loses, like painting or sculpture, then to me thats beautiful. BUT, i DO think chess is romantic.

"Is Chess a Beautiful Game ?"
If not because of anything else, then at the very least because
is arguably much more pleasing to the eye than
-4 -2 -3 -5 -6 -3 -2 -4 1
-1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 1

4 2 3 5 6 3 2 4 1
even if they both can be logically equivalent.
Why do people think chess is a beautiful game ?
