Canto XXX 1490s Drawing on parchment, 320 x 470 mm Staatliche Museen, Berlin In the Empyrean, the upper heaven, Dante and Beatrice are carried upwards in a river of light, from which fly sparkles which Botticelli depicts as little putti. They disappear in the meadows of flowers along the banks on either side. The one on the right had not been retraced with ink and was a preliminary drawing carried out in silver point.

Portrait of a Young Man new21/BOTTICELLI, Sandro-267852.jpg ID de tableau:: 62940 |
1469 Tempera on panel, 51 x 33,7 cm Galleria Palatina (Palazzo Pitti), Florence Botticelli painted this portrait in a three quarter view like a silhouette against a pale blue sky. The young man, who is looking very slightly down towards the observer, is wearing a red jerkin and the characteristic headgear of the Florentine Quattrocento, the mazzocchio. The hat band which is casually draped across his shoulder provides an artistic frame for the young man's face. The sitter of the portrait is probably Gianlorenzo de' Medici, and it could very well be Botticelli's first commissioned work, and from the hair and the clothes, the portrait must date from no later than 1469.

Portrait of a Lady new21/BOTTICELLI, Sandro-988864.jpg ID de tableau:: 62941 |
1470-75 Tempera on panel, 65,7 x 41 cm Victoria and Albert Museum, London If the inscription on the window jamb, possibly dating from the 16th century, is to be believed, this is a portrait of Smeralda Brandini, who was a member of a respected Florentine family. A sign of her rank and respectable status is the handkerchief which she is holding in the hand placed across her body.

Portrait of a Young Woman new21/BOTTICELLI, Sandro-536976.jpg ID de tableau:: 62943 |
1475 Tempera on panel, 61 x 40 cm Galleria Palatina (Palazzo Pitti), Florence There are several assumptions concerning the identity of the young woman (Simonetta Vespucci, Clarice Orsini, Fioretta Gorini etc.). The picture was partly repainted. The sleeve of the robe covers the left hand in a very unnatural way. The lock of hair coming loose from her bun gives a more spontaneous feeling to this severe profile portrait. The half length figure is slightly to the left of the centre of the picture. Behind her is a dark window frame and it contrasts with the gentle flow other contours. The attribution of the work to Botticelli is disputed.
