Uffizi Gallery, Florence - Thursday, June 2
Birth of Venus by Botticelli
Proportions of the women in the works displayed in Uffizi Gallery are very inordinary. The women have unusually long neck followed by the low and curvy shoulder, very small mouth, and very long fingers and toes.
I have noticed that the women in these works have many facial features in common and surprisingly, these correspond with the perfect physiognomy originated in Asia. Eyebrows are located high above the long and large eyes.
