The Birth of Venus by Alessandro Botticelli (c. 1485-1486) ...
for its symbolization of love, beauty and fertility - the noun form of "Venus" in Latin means love and desire - shares a connection with venerari (meaning - to honor, to try to please) and venia (grace, favor)

I totally love art from the renaissance period and stained glass windows in chapels or cathedrals - I would really like to travel in extensively in the US and in Europe to see collections of art and visit as many architectural treasures as possible, someday!
