Botticelli's Primavera: A Botanical Interpretation
No Customer Reviews
"If we have to point to one artist who represents the Uffizi Galleries, certainly Botticelli prevails even over Michelangelo". In this way the Director of the Uffizi, Eike Schmidt, introduces the reading of this book. Quotations and gadgets derived from his works show Botticelli's popularity with general public. But above all, the great table of Primavera, icon of the imagination and undisputed symbol of the Renaissance, stands out. The book we are now presenting, however, uses the flowers and plants of the meadow on which the famous scene takes place as the key to interpreting the work and its meanings, and brings out a world of meanings and suggestions that lightly introduce us to the deepest heart of that extraordinary period that goes by the name, precisely, of Renaissance.
