That's a shame the question has been put on hold. Please add what you understand and/or why you are confused. Do you know the difference between an adjective and an adverb? Then edit and point that out IN the question. NOT in the comments below. The question stands a good chance of being reopened then. Good luck!

@Mari-LouA Any question which could be immediately answered by a native speaker with no particular expertise in theory is not a good candidate for this site. It should be asked on ELL, if and only if the OP really can’t find the answer by simply googling or in his learning materials. I really wish we didn’t have to have this conversation on the site so much.

It's being used as an adverb here, describing how it was done, not as an adjective. So, you want beautifully.
