Answer Botticelli expressed the romanesque figure. That period of time found women with child-bearing hips and alittle meat on their bones, attractive. This was a more realistic look at the human form than it is now.Rubens did the same and it was known as a Rubenesque figure. Another view: Romanesque is a little early for Botticelli. Romanesque is 10-12th centuries, Botticelli is 15th century. !5th century fashion made women wear dresses + extra material to make the stomach protrude. Rubens' 17th century ideal was overall plumpness.
