Listen to ArtMuse’s episode on Simonetta Vespucci, a Genoese noblewoman living in Florence during the 15th century. Deemed the most beautiful woman in all of Florence, Simonetta captured the heart of Florence’s greatest leaders, artists, poets, and intellectuals of her time.
It is believed that Simonetta was the model for Botticelli’s two greatest works; The Birth of Venus and Primavera.
But Simonetta Vespucci’s real life has been clouded by longheld folklore and fantasy. In this episode, we peel back the many layers of myth and give Simonetta, as a woman in her own right, the recognition she deserves.
