![I hustled through the Uffizi just to see this, as well as Botticelli's Primavera. From Wikipedia: The Birth of Venus (Italian: Nascita di Venere [ˈnaʃʃita di ˈvɛːnere]) is a painting by the Italian artist Sandro Botticelli, probably executed in the mid-1480s. It depicts the goddess Venus arriving at the shore after her birth, when she had emerged from the sea fully-grown (called Venus Anadyomene and often depicted in art). The painting is in the Uffizi Gallery in Florence, Italy.
Although the two are not a pair, the painting is inevitably discussed with Botticelli's other very large mythological painting, the Primavera, also in the Uffizi. They are among the most famous paintings in the world, and icons of Italian Renaissance painting; of the two, the Birth is better known than the Primavera.[1] As depictions of subjects from classical mythology on a very large scale they were virtually unprecedented in Western art since classical antiquity, as was the size and prominence of a nude female figure in the Birth. It used to be thought that they were both commissioned by the same member of the Medici family, but this is now uncertain.
They have been endlessly analysed by art historians, with the main themes being: the emulation of ancient painters and the context of wedding celebrations (generally agreed), the influence of Renaissance Neo-Platonism (somewhat controversial), and the identity of the commissioners (not agreed). Most art historians agree, however, that the Birth does not require complex analysis to decode its meaning, in the way that the Primavera probably does. While there are subtleties in the painting, its main meaning is a straightforward, if individual, treatment of a traditional scene from Greek mythology, and its appeal is sensory and very accessible, hence its enormous popularity.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:iolpkl3l4xhbzg7znhq2emyv/bafkreidztq7oix4iq3y5ijlgibrpirpmomnihdv7efwg7l5s57h7uxxd3q)

![Fillette lisant (Young girl reading), by Berthe Morisot. Pastel on paper, 1886. The painting shows a young girl with red hair, sitting outdoors reading a book. In the background are trees and grass. This painting was photographed at Fondation Bemberg, a museum in Toulouse, France. From Wikipedia: Berthe Marie Pauline Morisot (French: [bɛʁt mɔʁizo]; 14 January 1841 – 2 March 1895) was a French painter, printmaker and a member of the circle of painters in Paris who became known as the Impressionists.
In 1864, Morisot exhibited for the first time in the highly esteemed Salon de Paris, listed as a student of Joseph Guichard and Achille-Francois Oudinot. Her work was selected for exhibition in six subsequent Salons[1] until, in 1874, she joined the "rejected" Impressionists in the first of their own exhibitions (15 April – 15 May 1874), which included Paul Cézanne, Edgar Degas, Claude Monet, Camille Pissarro, Pierre-Auguste Renoir and Alfred Sisley. It was held at the studio of the photographer Nadar. Morisot went on to participate in all but one of the following eight impressionist exhibitions, between 1874 and 1886.[2]
Morisot was married to Eugène Manet, the brother of her friend and colleague Édouard Manet.[3]
She was described by art critic Gustave Geffroy in 1894 as one of "les trois grandes dames" (The three great ladies) of Impressionism alongside Marie Bracquemond and Mary Cassatt.

Portrait of Sir Walter Scott and his two dogs by Scottish artist Henry Raeburn. The portrait hangs at Abbotsford, Scott's home on the Scottish border. In it, Scott, wearing a dark green suit, cream-colored shirt in the Regency style, and brown boots, sits on a stone step, holding a small red book in his left hand. The right hand rests on his knee. On his left is a white sighthound with tan markings, with the dog looking eagerly at Scott. At his feet is a black and tan dog with white markings on the chest and right front paw. In the background is a large tree and a stormy looking sky.

![From Wikipedia: Snow Storm, or Snow Storm: Steam-Boat off a Harbour's Mouth, (full title: Snow Storm – Steam-Boat off a Harbour's Mouth Making Signals in Shallow Water, and going by the Lead. The Author was in this Storm on the Night the "Ariel" left Harwich)[1] is a painting by English artist Joseph Mallord William Turner (1775–1851) from 1842. Turner later recounted a story about the background of the painting:
I did not paint it to be understood, but I wished to show what such a scene was like; I got the sailors to lash me to the mast to observe it; I was lashed for four hours, and I did not expect to escape, but I felt bound to record it if I did.
He was 67 years old at the time.[5][6] Some later commentators doubt the literal truth of this account.[1] Other critics accept Turner's account, and one wrote, "He empathized completely with the dynamic form of sovereign nature."[7] This inscription allows us to better understand the scene represented and the confusion of elements.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:iolpkl3l4xhbzg7znhq2emyv/bafkreidxj6taqds7qx2au37tpacw6m32luhv5gazzizig2kqyrywvlokau)
