Context

Multiplying Venus images for the rich is an inequality path in access to cultural capital. Improving beauty-knowledge sits on named masterpiece rows. Shared assistants remain essential.

Sandro Botticelli’s documented role is bounded by other offices and collaborators named in the sources below.

Met Heilbrunn emphasises workshop multiplication of Venus and Madonna types for elite and export demand.

Why it matters

Workshop luxury multiplication is an inequality path of medium confidence on any one panel’s hand, high that the shop supplied elite demand.

Who was responsible

Contribution type and responsibility level for each recorded actor — not sole-author shorthand.

What changed

Fact → Driver → Indicator. Relationship strength orders the paths; it is not the observed indicator movement.

Sandro Botticelli did not file a later UNESCO form, a later Loeb colophon, or a later museum label as a personal act. Keep masterpiece rows separate.
