Also referred to as Allegory of Spring, this 1482 Tempera on Panel is probably the most debated upon paintings by Botticelli. With 6 females and 2 male figures forming a small group of 8, the characters are considered to be mythological. Of course, the central figure is that of Venus in her arch, the young man draped in red at the far left is said to be Mercury.
