From Andy Warhol to Lady Gaga, no one appears to be immune to the eternal fascination of Botticelli and his works.
During a time of political power struggles and brutal violence, the Renaissance Florence of Lorenzo de’ Medici was a tumultuous period that also had a burst of creative genius. One artist, more than any other, was able to capture this zeitgeist in his works, the lights and shadows of an era destined never to be forgotten: Sandro Botticelli (1445-1510). From the outset of his career under the wing of the Medici family, Botticelli asserted himself as the inventor of an ideal Beauty, which found its maximum expression in works such as The Allegory of Spring and the Birth of Venus.
