Don't know how to put captions. Well, these are my three favourite The Birth of Venus.

1) Alexandre Cabanel, 1863

2) William-Adolne-Bouguereau, 1879

3) Sandro Boiticelli, 1486

    the Greek Goddess of Love.

    Venus by William A. Bouguereau I like the most. I think "Oil on Canvas" suits well to nude paintings as it perfectly depict the skin tone and female curves. Whatdayathink?

    hey you know, Salar Jung Museum (Hyderabad, India) has wonderful collection of nude oil on canvas paintings including some of Bouguereau's private collection. That paintings room is one of my best at Salar Jung Museum.
