Question

This artist depicted crosses of St. George floating in the background of a Crucifixion scene dominated by smoke and black storm clouds. (-5[1])Though Vasari claimed this artist gave up painting later in life, he created late, architectural depictions of the Life of St. Zenobius and the Tragedy of Lucretia. Text describing (15[1])the “privileges of the Virgin” (15[1])was originally visible in another painting by this artist, (-5[1])which features a Greek inscription (15[1])referencing the Book of Revelation (-5[1])above a circle (15[1]-5[1])of (*) twelve figures holding hands in the sky. (10[3]-5[1])This artist’s (-5[1])Mystical Crucifixion and (-5[1])Nativity (10[1])were likely influenced by (10[1])Girolamo (10[1])Savonarola. (10[11])This artist also painted Simonetta Vespucci as a figure at whom Zephyr blows wind. (10[6]-5[1])For 10 (10[2])points, (10[3])name this Florentine artist (10[1])who painted a (10[1])goddess (10[2])standing on a (10[1]-5[1])shell (10[4]-5[1])in The Birth of Venus. ■END■ (10[7])
