The Face of a Botticelli

I've always said (and been told by others) that Tracie has the face of a Botticelli. Now I have proof. While in Europe, my parents found this painting that does look quite a bit like my ideal beauty. Aptly, that's the name of the painting: "Idéal féminin" or "Female Ideal." I don't think it looks exactly like my princess, but it looks quite a lot like her for being a painting done over 500 years ago. What do you think?

Even I think it looks like me. Kinda creepy. I have nicer lips though. :)

I have always thought that Tracie was beautiful. I have been told since Tracie started college that she and I look a lot alike. So that means I look like a Boticelli too then?!

That's so cool!
It's an amazing likeness.

You know, when I saw the pic, before I read the post, I thought it looked like your wife. *Though your wife has a better nose than the painting* But the bone structure on the face reminded me of her and at first I thought that you'd found one of those programs where you plug in a photo and it makes it look like a famous drawing or something...
That's really awesome!
