Sandro Botticelli (1445-1510) was a prominent Florentine Renaissance painter known for his graceful figures and mythological themes. His iconic works include “The Birth of Venus” and “Primavera”, showcasing elegant lines and a distinctive style that defined early Renaissance art.
Sandro Botticelli’s Virgin and Child with Two Angels (c 1485–1495) is a tondo—a circular painting. The composition shows two angels delicately drawing back curtains to reveal the Virgin Mary and the Christ Child, set against slender trees that evoke a throne-like presence. This small, intimate scene likely served a private devotional role, as suggested by Christ’s gesture of blessing and the choice of a circular format typical for Florentine patrons. The work reflects the mystical religious tradition of early Renaissance Florence.
