"Botticelli’s Birth of Venus (link to wiki image below) is probably one of the most well known paintings in the world. I thought would submit it to you despite that. I was hoping to find a hidden treasure of some sort, but there are two reasons I was drawn back to this piece after searching elsewhere. First, it reminds me of a favorite portion of the Art History class at Williams, which was a fantastic mind-opening experience I enjoyed a great deal. Second, this painting is so delicate and the lines so sharp and flowing that it’s hard to find anything else that compares to it, even within Renaissance art. Each time I look at it this hits me. It comes to mind immediately when I think about a striking work of art. Someday I would like to see it in person at the Uffizi gallery in Florence and admire it in full scale."
