Botticelli v.s DaVinci

The Primavera is my favorite painting form Botticelli. Seening it for the first time I did not understand it, but while reading what struct me the most was the images of the three graces, chastity,beauty, and passion. There is no doubt that Botticelli is the most repersentative artist of the humanistic thought. As for Da Vinci, I love all his paintings and sculptures. Especially the Madonna of the Rocks. The lack of hard lines gives it an almost dreamy like state that maked the divine figures look more human.
Also the accuracy of the flowers, grasses, and plants amze me. I truly enjoy Da Vinci's works of art more then those of Botticelli.
