It has been described as "one of the most written about, and most controversial paintings in the world", and also "one of the most popular paintings in Western art". </P> <P> The painting depicts a group of figures from classical mythology in a garden, but no story has been found that brings this particular group together . Most critics agree that the painting is an allegory based on the lush growth of Spring, but accounts of any precise meaning vary, though many involve the Renaissance Neoplatonism which then fascinated intellectual circles in Florence . The subject was first described as Primavera by the art historian Giorgio Vasari who saw it at Villa Castello, just outside Florence, by 1550 . </P>
