Stephy Reading Challenge - Book 26

 


Botticelli - Images of Love and Spring by Frank Zӧllner

This whole book was just an in-depth look at five different Botticelli paintings. The paintings are Mars and Venus, La Primavera: A Wedding Picture, Minerva and the Centaur, The Birth of Venus, and The Villa Lemmi Frescoes.

My favorite of these is Mars and Venus.

It was a very interesting read. I like art, but I never looked too closely into the subtle references or meanings in art. I just like pretty things. So it was cool to learn this kind of stuff. 

I also learned what the seven liberal arts are. So now whenever Jaskier mentions them my brain is feeding me a definition. So that is fun while reading Witcher fan-fiction...
