1. inhuman

   Whatever is not civilized is barbarian; barbaric indicates rude magnificence, uncultured richness; as, barbaric splendor, a barbaric melody. Barbarous refers to the worst side of barbarian life, and to revolting acts, especially of cruelty, such as a civilized man would not be expected to do; as, a barbarous deed. We may, however, say barbarous nations, barbarous tribes, without implying anything more than want of civilization and culture. Savage is more distinctly bloodthirsty than barbarous. In this sense we speak of a savage beast and of barbarous usage.

   civilized, courtly, cultured, delicate, elegant, graceful, humane, nice, polite, refined, tender, urbane

   We regard the photograph, the picture on our wall, as the object itself (the man, landscape, and so on) depicted there. This need not have been so.
