                The Birth of Venus is a 1486 painting by Sandro Botticelli. Botticelli was commissioned to paint the work by the Medici family of Florence, specifically Lorenzo di Pierfrancesco de' Medici under the influence of his cousin Lorenzo de' Medici, close friend to Botticelli . It depicts the goddess Venus, having emerged from the sea as a fully grown woman, arriving at the sea-shore (which is related to the Venus Anadyomene motif).The painting is on display at the Uffizi Gallery in Florence, Italy.

                For the composition we can see from this Venus. Although she is not exactly larger than the other figures we but due to her placement in the center of the work. Two other additional focal areas , they draws our attention to Venus. She is nude and has bright white color and place her right arm over her breast, and the left over her sexual.

                The foreground is brighten and clear then it bringing all of the attention to the foreground. The artist creating perspective by use illusion of depth on a flat surface, reduce the size of objects, blurred detail, color begins to fade giving off the effect that it is far.
