Sandro Botticelli | Art in Detail

Alessandro di Mariano di Vanni Filipepi, known as Sandro Botticelli (Italian: [sandro bottiˈtʃɛlli]; c. 1445 - May 17, 1510), was an Italian painter of the Early Renaissance.

Botticelli's posthumous reputation suffered until the late 19th century, when he was rediscovered by the Pre-Raphaelites who stimulated a reappraisal of his work. Since then, his paintings have been seen to represent the linear grace of Early Renaissance painting.

In addition to the mythological subjects for which he is best known today, Botticelli painted a wide range of religious subjects (including dozens of renditions of the Madonna and Child, many in the round tondo shape) and also some portraits. His best-known works are The Birth of Venus and Primavera, both in the Uffizi in Florence.

Eugène Delacroix: "La fredda esattezza non è arte"

• "Nature is a dictionary; one draws words from it".

• "on Rubens... Glory to that Homer of painting, to that father of warmth and enthusiasm... he really paints men".

• "on Titian... There is a man whose qualities can be savored by people who are getting old... The painter qualities are carried to the highest point in his work: what he does is done - through and through; when he paints eyes, they are lit with the fire of life".
