Happy Birthday May 17

The most successful pirate captain of the Golden Age of Piracy, Bartholomew "Black Bart" Roberts was born on May 17, 1682. Roberts had very strict rules on his ship, prohibiting all lights and drinking after eight in the evening. There was also a complete ban on gambling.

Today Is May 17

Italian painter Sandro Botticelli died on this day in 1519.

Self-portrait of Botticelli, in his Adoration of the Magi (1475)

Sandro Botticelli was an Italian painter of the Early Renaissance. He is best known for his treatments of mythological subjects, notably Primavera (Spring) and Birth of Venus, both in the Uffizi.

Botticelli never married and is believed to have had an unrequited love for a married woman Simonetta Vespucci, who was part of Amerigo Vespucci's family. (America was named after Amerigo Vespucci.) She served as the model for his Birth of Venus and recurs throughout his paintings

In Botticelli's later years was much influenced by the teaching of Girolamo Savonarola, who in 1497 organized a “bonfire of the vanities” at the carnival celebration before Lent, in which Florentine luxury goods, works of art, pornographic books and gambling equipment were publicly burnt. Botticelli himself destroyed some of his earlier mythological paintings, feeling that when they were painted, he was unduly influenced by the worldly spirit of the age.

Sandro Botticelli died on May 17, 1519, a lonely man having done little or no more painting in the last ten years. He was buried next to his adored Simonetta Vespucci. It was not until over 350 years after his death that the world recognized his importance in art.

On This Day May 17

The Société Notre-Dame de Montréal founded a permanent mission known as Ville-Marie (or "City of Mary”) on May 17, 1642, which eventually grew into the city of Montreal. The name 'Montréal' comes from Mont Royal, which means 'Royal Mountain' in French. At the center of Montreal is a mountain called Mount Royal). Montreal was originally a fur trading outpost belonging to France. It grew to become the largest city in Canada. (Toronto surpassed it in the 1970s.)
