Product Description

Inspired by Sandro Botticelli's landmark painting "The Birth of Venus," created c. 1485 and currently located at the Uffizi Gallery in Florence, Italy, this Neoclassical Pop Art artwork is titled 'La Femme.'

 

Sandro Botticelli (1445-1510) was one of the most significant Florentine Painters. Perhaps the most appreciated Italian show-stopper ever painted, The Birth of Venus is a milestone that defines the 15th century Italian Renaissance.

 

It all starts with the Greek myth of Kronos and Uranus. In return, Venus, the Goddess of Love and beauty, rises as a fully formed mature woman from the foam of a cresting wave and is carried on a shell drifting to shore in Cyprus.

 

Botticelli adds his own drama to the myth: the mythological Greek gods of the winds carry Venus to the shore.

 

The features of Venus are tied to the model Simonetta Vespucci, held up all through Florence as the ideal of feminine beauty.

 

That attention to feminine beauty, style, appeal and divine glam, crowned by Venus' famous hairstyle, has inspired Pop Culture artists from Andy Warhol and Jeff Koons to Lady Gaga and Beyonce.

 

Rooted in Plato's philosophy, Botticelli's Venus is an icon of love and a source of spiritual development and inner beauty, a reminder that contemplating beauty can lead the mind toward a meditative state of harmony and love.

 

Said to have hung over the Medici Family marital bed, the commission from Botticelli's major patron was a daring act for its time; today it is still perfect wall art for the bedroom, while Venus carries her blessings of love to any space.

 

A contemporary print, made by the Neoclassical Pop Art studio. A collectible statement piece for true art lovers, where the old masters and pop culture meet.
