The Birth of Venus by Sandro Botticelli is a famous painting that dates back to 1485, during the Italian Renaissance era. This composition depicts the goddess Venus, representing love and beauty, as she emerges from the sea and arrives on land. Standing in a scallop shell, a symbol of her purity and perfection like a pearl, this masterpiece is renowned as one of the most influential works of the Renaissance.
