En savoir plus sur le livre
The Florentine painter Sandro Botticelli (1445-1510) is celebrated as one of history's greatest artists, known for iconic works like the Birth of Venus and Primavera. His art has permeated our collective visual memory, influencing diverse fields such as product development and fashion, as well as artists like Andy Warhol and Jeff Koons. However, Botticelli's posthumous fame was not guaranteed; he faded into obscurity after his death and was only rediscovered in the nineteenth century. Much of what we know about his work comes from limited documentation, with only three pieces signed. Botticelli's legacy raises intriguing questions about the nature of fame in art, the reasons behind his status as a pop icon, and the timelessness of his creations. His influence is so profound that his Venus even graces the 10 cent coin. This book explores the evolving interpretations of Botticelli's work, showcasing over forty original pieces alongside various adaptations across media such as painting, drawing, sculpture, photography, video, fashion, and design, tracing the artist's impact from his time to the present day.
