Birth Of Venus Boticelli Belgian Tapestry Wall Hanging – 42 in. x 26 in. Cotton/Viscose/Polyester by Sandro Botticelli

Birth of Venus- Boticelli is a Belgian made jacquard woven wall tapestry. The original artwork comes from the painting, the Birth of Venus, created by Sandro Botticelli. It portrays the goddess Venus emerging from the sea in her clam-shell. It is believed to have been commissioned by Lorenzo di Pierfrancesco de'Medici for his Villa di Castello. Others speculate that it was painted in honor of Simonetta Cattaneo Vespucci, a love of both Giuliano di Piero de' Medici and the artist Botticelli, who lived in a seaside town that revered the Venus. Those who favor this story believe that Simonetta herself was the model for Venus.
