I was inspired by the figure of Simonetta Vespucci, an Italian noblewoman of the Renaissance, Sandro Botticelli's muse. From the portraits that the latter made of her, I started to create a 3D model, I sculpt her and paint her, I put the lights on. after I created the subject I start portraying it, to paint it in oil on canvas. the face interests me, giving the figure a hint of expression, life. As for Botticelli and other Renaissance artists, so too Simonetta posed virtual for me, still stimulating today a research on charm and mystery and which is hidden behind an ancient look
