I think part of it is nutrition, meaning, we have better nutrition so we look healthier. But, it's more than that. They have totally different facial structures and such.
One difference is that we smile in pictures today. A century ago, not so much, which will definitely alter facial structure. Smiling generally makes you look healthier.
