April 18, 1504: Early Italian Renaissance painter Filippino Lippi dies.

Lippi was the son of famous painter Fra Filippo Lippi, and his style was most certainly influenced by the works of Sandro Botticelli.

🎨 "The Nativity with Two Angels", possibly early 1490s

I made an error yesterday in crediting the design of Meg Mucklebones solely to Rob Bottin. The art isn't by Bottin, but was actually drafted by Miles Teves (his signature is evident in this larger picture here). My thanks to for pointing this out.

Botticelli depicted Venus arriving at the shore after her birth, having emerged from the sea fully-grown.
"…she was carried over the waves of the resounding sea on soft foam. The gold-filleted Horae happily welcomed her & clothed her with heavenly raiment…"

El Nacimiento de Venus, obra cumbre de Sandro Botticelli y uno de los símbolos de la Florencia Renacentista, ha fascinado y sigue fascinando a los amantes del arte. La perfecta Venus es el rostro de quien fue musa y amor imposible de Botticelli, Simonetta Vespucci, 🧵👇

El rostro de Venus🎨
Cuentan que Botticelli se volvió loco de amor, por culpa de una joven muy bella, Simonetta Vespucci
Por eso, el artista habría pintado su rostro en muchas obras, como «Venus y Marte» o «El nacimiento de Venus»
Sin embargo, ella se casó con otro hombre🔁
