The Birth of Venus — Botticelli
The Birth of Venus, created around 1484–1486, is a tempera on canvas measuring 1.72 by 2.78 meters, featuring Venus emerging from a scallop shell on a sea-foam green wave. Its dreamy linear style precedes Michelangelo's muscular approach in the Sistine Ceiling (#1), though Botticelli's composition cost 500 florins for materials, highlighting its lavish detail.
