✨Story time✨ The model for Venus was not just some random girl, her name was Simonetta Vespucci, the woman loved by Giuliano de’ Medici, yep, Lorenzo the magnificent’s brother, the famous one. Botticelli himself admired Simonetta, who saw in her beauty the beauty of God and he used her face for several paintings
Expulsion from the Garden of Eden, Masaccio
✨Story time✨ Three centuries after the fresco was painted, Cosimo III de' Medici, in line with contemporary ideas of decorum, ordered that fig leaves be added to conceal the genitals of the figures. These were eventually removed in the 1980s when the painting was fully restored and cleaned.
