The quote "There's no art to find the mind's construction in the face" is spoken by King Duncan in William Shakespeare's play "Macbeth." In this line, Duncan reflects on the difficulty of discerning a person's true intentions or character merely by their outward appearance. This theme of deception and the contrast between appearance and reality is prevalent throughout the play.

Who said in Macbeth there's no art to find the minds construction in the face he was a gentleman on whom i built an absolute trust?

Duncan, about the first Thane of Cawdor. Of course, his next choice for Thane of Cawdor is someone else in whom he builds an absolute trust, namely Macbeth. Truly, Duncan is useless at finding the mind's construction in the face, which might make him a saint or an idiot, but in any event a man unequipped to be an effective king.

What does there's no art to find the minds construction in the face mean in Macbeth?

The context helps here. Duncan is surprised to find that the Thane of Cawdor turned out to be a traitor. He says, "There's no art to find the mind's construction in the face; he was a gentleman on whom I built an absolute trust." We know what the second part means: Duncan trusted Cawdor completely. In the first part, the word "art" means skill or ability, "mind's construction" means the way someone's mind is constructed, or what they are thinking, so it means "there is no such thing as the skill or ability to find what someone is thinking in the face", or "you can't judge a book by its cover". Duncan is saying that you cannot tell what someone is thinking by looking at them, and this is true for Duncan anyway. Other people are capable of it.
