Description

Simonetta Vespucci, one of the most beautiful ladies of the era (in the mid 15th century). She was nominated as "The Queen of Beauty". She's also quite commercial these days as she has become the "Adobe illustrator-icon'. Anyways, after meeting her, the great painter Botticelli painted no one else for the rest of his life. Isn't that romantic!

And after that many others has also painted and illustrated her thru the years. At least in our decade...I've always been inspired by Botticellis work and loved his style, so I worked on this on and off, as a useful exercise.
