plot and figure in The Birth of Venus are based on a poetry.

Boticelli Venus stood on the shell which symbled her birthplace appearing melancholy and feeble, it seemed that she had no passion towards Spring and the world. The mental state of The Birth of Venus is a portrayal of Botticelli’s attitudes towards reality.
There is another implication in The Birth of Venus that: beauty is eternal without birth and death. Botticelli used the image of
Venus to explain such aesthetic concept because she was born a beauty and would keep the beauty and youth perpetually with no experience of childhood or senility. Botticelli’s Venus and Mars
Venus is watching the sleeping Mars concentratedly as if she has dominated and placated him, she becomes the mother of the nature and human beings. Mars looks like a teen-ager conquered by the warm weather rather than a formidable God of War. Pan playing with the armour what Mars tossed away beside him.
