Purist painting by Luigi Mussini, depicting several historical characters from different periods at an imagined celebration of Plato's birthday, realized by members of the Florentine Platonic Academy

Summary[edit]

Description
English: "Natalizi e parentali di Platone, celebrati nella Villa di Careggi da Lorenzo il Magnifico", first painted by Luigi Mussini in 1862 and then again in 1867. It was commissioned by the French Ministry of Fine Arts ([1]). The painting depicts a passage described by Marsilio Ficino in De Amore, when in November 7, 1468 he and his friends (including other Renaissance humanists) gathered in a reenactment of the Symposium, in a "Platoneia" celebration. In Ficino's writings, it was later alleged in revised additions that the birthday celebration was sponsored by Lorenzo de Medici at Careggi ([2]).
