She was the ultimate Muse of the Renaissance, inspiring princes, painters and poets. This discussion looks to unpack the shockwave that followed the arrival of Simonetta Vespucci in Florence. Who was she, and how does history inform her impact on the Italian Renaissance?
We dive deeper, interpreting how to digest the questions around attributions of her image, and how virtue, courtship, and Neoplatonic thought elevated her in Florentine society. Even after her tragic death, La bella Simonetta was closely entangled in the developing culture by the likes of the Medici, Sandro Botticelli, and Angelo Poliziano.
