This presentation will examine the art of Sandro Botticelli (c.1445-1510), one of the principal painters of Renaissance Florence. Known for both his religious work and secular imagery rife with classical reference, Botticelli was considered one of the leading painters of his day, catering to clerics and Humanists alike. While working for a variety of patrons, including the pope, he is best known for his work for the Medici family.
