Sandro Botticelli in Florence
Botticelli in Florence
Florence holds more Botticelli than any other city — almost all of his major work is here, which is unusual for a Renaissance painter of his reputation. The Uffizi has Primavera and The Birth of Venus in the same room: two of the most reproduced paintings in the world, hanging thirty feet apart. In person, they are larger than most people expect, and less familiar — the colour has changed over five centuries and the figures are odder, more angular, than any reproduction suggests.
Beyond those two, the Uffizi holds a sustained Botticelli collection across several rooms: the Adoration of the Magi (with his self-portrait on the right edge), the Calumny of Apelles, and a series of Madonna and Child panels that show his range across three decades of work.
Planning your visit
Arrive at the Uffizi when it opens and go directly to the Botticelli rooms on the second floor. By mid-morning the rooms are crowded enough to make sustained looking difficult.
