Botticelli and the adoration of a single woman
Simonetta Vespucci was one of the most beautiful women of the Florentine Renaissance. She was admired by many influential men of the time and the muse of many artists, including Botticelli.
Simonetta married at the age of 15 to Marco Vespucci, a distant cousin of Amerigo Vespucci, and was the mistress of Giuliano de Medici, younger brother of Lorenzo de Medici
Her death at the age of 23 broke the hearts of her admirers, and her funeral was attended by all the leading men of Florence
It seems the painter loved her all his life and even asked to be buried at her feet, a wish that was granted 34 years after his death.
Botticelli is said to have used her death mask in his paintings of Simonetta.
But some sceptics think otherwise. They believe the painting Idealised Portrait of a Lady does not belong to Botticelli, but was painted by another painter in his studio. Moreover, the fact that Simonetta is the central figure in many of the works is only a supposition as Botticelli never revealed the names of his models.
