Images & Words - 260 - Spring

Images & Words - Primavera

(Spring in 'The New Life' by Dante Alighieri)
[Botticelli's Primavera is a photo I took in the Uffizi Museum - Dec 2011]


Dante saw coming towards him a lady who was very famous for her beauty, her right name was Joan; but because of her comeliness she was called of many Primavera (Spring). Then looking again, he perceived that the most noble Beatrice followed after her. And he gave to Beatrice his own name: Love.
With this in mind he composed the poem that ends with the verses I included in the picture above.

And you? What do you do?
Don't wait for me, I might get lost
