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 St John the Baptist (1490–1500) is a circular tondo painting blending divine intimacy with stylistic elegance.
The Virgin tenderly cradles the Christ Child, while young St John the Baptist gazes reverently. Botticelli’s refined contours, serene expressions, and harmonious gestures evoke spiritual grace. Though assistants likely painted the landscape and St John, Botticelli’s hand is evident in the central figures’ emotive connection and fluid lines. Influenced by Savonarola’s religious fervor, the subdued palette and devotional mood reflect Botticelli’s late style. The tondo’s composition radiates balance, depth, and contemplative beauty.
