Glass Mosaic: "Primavera" by Botticelli (Large size)

Item 2180 - Cod MV16x22-PRI

Description

Hand crafted glass mosaic portrait
A part of one of Botticelli’s most famous masterpieces is the subject of this astonishing mosaic creation. The Primavera or “Springtime” is housed in the famous Uffizi Gallery in Florence. The face is that of Catherine of Alexandria which Botticelli painted the portrait of and is housed in the Lindenau Museum in Germany. Small pieces of Venetian glass from Murano are cut into tiny pieces and carefully placed according to the drawing. The term for this technique is called “Vaticano mosaico Romano.” It first evolved in Rome at the end of the 17th century in the Vatican school by an artist called Rafaelli. The portrait is ablaze with an incredible abundance of different colours. Our expert craftsman has poured his heart and soul into making this magnificent portrait come to life, indeed, it seems to have a personality all of its own. This is truly a unique masterpiece, and one to treasure through the generations.
