@tudoraesthetic: the eyes are the windows to the soul // from ancient Egypt, the Eye of Horus represented protection, healing, and restoration. It was placed on jewelry, amulets, and funerary objects as a symbol meant to safeguard the wearer in life and the afterlife. Across the ancient world, the eye continued to appear as a symbol of divine power. But in the Renaissance, artists became fascinated with the eye in a new way: as a reflection of emotion and the inner self. Portraits by masters like Sandro Botticelli used carefully rendered gazes to suggest intelligence, personality, and even mystery. #aesthetic #art #arthistory #History #eyes
