The Birth of Venus by Botticelli in 1482 is one of my absolute favorite Renaissance Paintings. The Renaissance's rebirth of Humanism is so eloquently depicted in Botticelli's painting(s). The fluidity and preciceness of the lines, colors and textures can be seen in both Botticelli's painting and in the garments of this time period.
