A portrait attributed to Sandro Botticelli, portraying a young man holding a medal of Cosimo de' Medici. The work exemplifies the Renaissance interest in humanism and the individual.
This portrait, attributed to Sandro Botticelli, depicts a young man holding a medal. The sitter is positioned against a serene background, a distant vista of rolling hills and a pale sky. He wears a dark green robe, fastened with a simple tie, and a bright red cap that draws the eye. His long, dark hair frames a face rendered with a delicate naturalism. The light catches the planes of his face, accentuating his features. The medal he holds is gilded and detailed, bearing the likeness of Cosimo de' Medici. The inclusion of this medal suggests an affiliation with the Medici family, powerful patrons of the arts in Florence during the Renaissance. Botticelli, born Alessandro di Mariano di Vanni Filipepi, was a Florentine painter of the Early Renaissance. He belonged to the Florentine School under the patronage of Lorenzo de' Medici, a movement that Giorgio Vasari would characterise less than a century later as a "golden age". Botticelli's work is known for its graceful figures, linear style, and use of colour. This portrait exemplifies the Renaissance interest in humanism and the individual, moving away from purely religious subjects to explore the character and status of the sitter.

Beautiful print, great quality and love it with the white frame. Delivery was really fast. I've had loads of compliments from visitors as I've hung it in my hallway as the first thing you see when you enter the house. Couldn't be happier.
Sandro Botticelli
Named after his brother's nickname ('little barrel'), trained as a goldsmith, painted Venus on a shell, and may have burned his own paintings in a bonfire.
