Lady with Primroses (detail)

by VERROCCHIO, Andrea del, Marble

The bust was admired by Florentines the most for the beauty of her hands. They have this jointless quality, or one that transcends joints; Botticelli would immortalize the same qualities in his painting. It should not be forgotten that Botticelli and Verrocchio were very friendly.

The detail shows the right hand of the portrait bust.
