Sotheby’s – Botticelli – The Man of Sorrows

Sotheby’s New York invited us to reimagine Botticelli’s angels with a three-dimensional approach.

Simplicity, elegance and subtlety. A pure experience – unclouded by texts or voices – presents the importance of Jesus painted by Botticelli. Details such as the angel’s formation, His crown, hands, eyes and face are presented up close. We are put in the presence of the magnificent artwork itself.

Light and shadow reveal details of angels that circle the crown of the Man of Sorrows.
