As we all know, Venus is the goodness of love and beauty in ancient Roman mythology, and in Greek mythology, she is called Aphrodite. From long long ago till now, artists try to keep the unparalleled beauty that standing aloof from the life. Generation by generation, respectful diligent western artists created quite a lot of oil painting for Venus with their gifted technique and typical interpretation on art and aesthetic. There are many splendid Venus oil paintings in art history, but only one of them is beloved by me especially.It is Birth of Venus, an amazing oil painting by Sandro Botticelli, who was an Italian artist of the Florentine School in renaissance times. In Roman myth, goodness Venus's birth can be considered as a miracle even in Divine Divinity. When her father was in the danger of being castrated by Titan Cronus, she was conceived; Venus emerged from the sea from a shell, and lands at Paphos in Cyprus. Two winds blow her to the shore, and the moment a nymph is poised to pack a cloak, modified with floral plant which around the goodness. Birth of Venus is created by its artist to describe the dramatic moment.
After gave birth to Birth of Venus, whenever Sandro Botticelli is referred, the Venus oil painting will come up firstly in art lovers' thought.
