Zephyr is considered the west wind and symbolizes the month of March and the beginning of spring. April is the month of Venus, considered the goddess of gardens (plants and flowers). Her name was Flora in Latin and Chloris in Greek, making the three women essentially one. The Graces are the companions of Venus (spring) and followers of Mercury. Mercury's union with Venus produced Cupid who inspires all life to follow Venus so she can reproduce. Mercury, named after his mother Maia, represents the movement of the wind from spring to summer and therefore represents the month of May. The Roman rustic calendar lasted ten months and began with the spring season in March. The painting is read from right to left as opposed to the traditional way of reading from left to right. This can be confusing as the wind also blows from east to west and not the other way around. “The circle of the Zodiac, whose rotation was thought to control the ebb and flow of the changing seasons, moves against the rotation of the earth. In schematic form, the seasons actually move “backwards,” marching from right to left across the vault of heaven.” It can therefore be concluded that Botticelli, inspired by the poets and poetry that surrounded him, and by the fact that the young Lorenzo had just purchased a rural farm, used the rustic Roman calendar as the basis for the compositional structure of "La Primavera". In August 1481, Lorenzo the Magnificent married young Lorenzo to Semiramide Appiani, whose family would provide the Medici with much-needed economic and military support as well as sealing their ties to the church,...... half of sheet......included. These men linked together by the artistic circle that had been created within the framework of Medici patronage, collaborated to effectively educate a young adolescent, Lorenzo di Pierfrancesco de' Medici, not only through poetry and the written word, but also through those translated words by Botticelli. in what can be called visual poetry. Moral allegory for which a little boy could see with his own eyes the beauty, love and virtue but also the importance of the daily existence of the farm based on the seasons and the importance of spring, "Spring" became poetry in his own and a visual aid in the education of the young Lorenzo di Pierfrancesco de' Medici. Furthermore, for Botticelli, it became a first step towards painting in a way that was no longer tied to religious imagery in terms of the church, but towards Botticelli himself becoming a visual poet..
