Text Appearing Before Image:
cident ; the beautiful scene may be interpretedrather to signify the birth and fruition of Love. Botticellihas chosen the sequence of the spring months to translate histheme in accents intelligible to his century of poets andscholars. Girlhood pursued by eager Youth— the frolicwind that breathes the spring, Zephyr with Aurora playing,flees from the embrace of March. As Flora crowned with. . . roses washed in dew, she scatters April blossoms.Her blithe step seems to mark the cadence of the mysticdance beyond. Upright amid arched walks of twilightgroves stands Maia, the Earth-Mother, a stately figure ofmatronhood. Her warning hand is raised towards the threesister-Graces who, typifying Woman, tread Lifes measureunconscious of Cupids dart. Mercury, the son of Maiaand Jupiter, symbolizes fruition, through the touch of theCaduceus upon the myrtle and orange-blossoms overhead.He resembles Giuliano dei Medici, and tradition sees alikeness to Simonetta Vespucci, his mistress, in the profile
