Knocking about the internet looking for Renaissance images of the cardinal virtues didn’t get me any closer to solving the mystery the missing Prudence, who will remain lost for now, but on one of my many meanderings from the object of my search I was reminded of the pure delight that it to be found in the works of Sandro Botticelli. He was a wonderful painter. I found a beautiful new book on Amazon that I have ordered for myself (I always check out the used copies first to see if anyone has a better deal) because it looks as though it might be one of the best large format books on him out there.Â
