The back of this card reads: Madonna and Child w/Saint John the Baptist by Sandro Botticelli (1445-1510) Erich Lessing / Art Resource, NY

Painter of the early Renaissance, born in Florence, Italy. He trained, probably, under Filippo Lippi (c,1458), and from c.1470 worked from his own studio. He is best known for his treatments of mythological subjects, notably 'Primavera' (Spring) and "Birth of Venus", both in the Uffizi. His work includes illustrations for Dante's Divina commedia, which he executed in pen and ink and silverpoint. Among his numberous devotional pictures are the "Coronation of the Virgin" (Florence Academy) and the large circular "Madonna and Child" (Uffizi). He also painted frescoes for the Sistine Chapel at the Vatican, and in his later years was much influenced by the teaching of Savonarola, producing works of a more deeply religious character.

Also available as blank stock for customer imprinting. These cards will be totally blank inside. They do not come with any standard greeting imprinted on them.
