#8 Primavera Botticelli

The people in the picture look like gods that are working together. I knew the little baby figure at the top was cupid. This is how i knew these were ancient gods. i would think the woman in the center would be the main goddess because she is in the middle. The blooms on the trees and flowers on floras dress represent the season spring. the way they dressed showed that these people were gods with the head bands and dresses. my attention focuses on the way the people are in their own groups and how each group goes together. The power the gods have to bring spring is the theme of this work. this is supposed to represent the season change for example chloris transformes into flora. No my feelings have not changed because the gods were indeed gods and the kid in the corner is still wierd. I have learned how zephyrus made chloris transform into flora.
