Alessandro
Botticelli (1445-1510) was one of the
most individualistic and graceful painters
of the Florentine school during the
Italian Renaissance. His highly distinctive
style covering religious, literary and
mythical themes, was characterized by
elegant execution, a sense of melancholy
and a strong accent on line. Birth of
Venus and Primavera, his iconic paintings
are considered to be the epitome of
the Italian Renaissance. View these
