Botticelli was considered decadent in the 19th C. Indeed Wilde was one of his promoters. Conservative society was uncomfortable with the nudity, the beautiful youths & indeed the suppressed emotion. Today, it is for these reasons he is loved.

momo - botticelli

naturalistic style that focuses on the physiognomy of humans and there is elegance in the way the works push the limits of complexity- momo as a dancer, the technicality, the sharpness and power of her moves are controlled, her emotions transcend her dance

Ne li occhi porta la mia donna Amore,...

Sì che, bassando il viso, tutto smore,

e d'ogni suo difetto ognor sospira:

fugge dinanzi a lei superbia ed ira.

Aiutatemi, donne, farle onore.

~Dante Alighieri
~Botticelli
