Judgement of Paris, Renaissance painting at Cini Palace, Venice, Italy.
The Judgement of Paris painting depicts three goddesses competing for a golden apple, with Paris seated on the right making his selection.
Created in 1486 by Sandro Botticelli using tempera on panel technique, this artwork represents a pivotal moment leading to the Trojan War.
The painting illustrates the Greek mythological contest between Hera, Athena, and Aphrodite, each offering different rewards to influence Paris's decision.
Visitors can view this 81.5 by 196.5 centimeter painting in the Cini Palace collection, which maintains regular exhibition hours throughout the year.
Unlike other interpretations of this scene, Botticelli chose to present the three goddesses fully clothed against a coastal background setting.
