SUMMARY:Talks | The Birth of Venus - Famous Paintings and their Hidden Hist
 ories with Áine Andrews at Triskel Arts Centre

  Artist and art teacher Áine Andrews will focus on a particular painting 
 to recount its history.\n\n\n\nWeek 4: The Birth of Venus\, Botticelli\, 1
 485.\n\n\n\nIt depicts the goddess of love and beauty arriving on the isla
 nd of Cyprus\, born of the sea spray and blown there by the winds on a gia
 nt scallop shell\, as pure and as perfect as a pearl.\n\n\n\nSimonetta Ves
 pucci\, the face of Venus with her fluttering gold red hair\, who was the 
 ‘most beautiful woman in Florence’ and a legend in her lifetime.The de
 tails of Simonetta’s life have passed into history with her death at 22

  the artist who so delicately portrayed her face in several other painting
