"Venus Verticordia" is a painting by Dante Gabriel Rossetti, completed in 1868. This artwork represents Venus, the Roman goddess of love, but Rossetti portrays her in a unique light, blending classical elements with his own symbolic style. The title "Verticordia" means the 'changer of hearts', suggesting a theme of transformation in the realm of love.

In the painting, Venus is depicted not as a mere object of beauty and desire, but as a powerful figure wielding influence over human emotions. She is shown with a halo of butterflies, which symbolize the soul and transformation, and holds an apple, referencing the Judgement of Paris and hinting at the choices and consequences in love. The roses around her, often associated with beauty and passion, also suggest the dual nature of love, with their thorns representing pain and suffering.

Rossetti's use of rich, vibrant colors and detailed textures adds a sensuous quality to the painting, typical of his works. His Venus challenges the viewer with her gaze, making her an active participant in the narrative rather than a passive subject. This portrayal reflects Rossetti's interest in exploring complex emotional and psychological themes through historical and mythological figures.

"Venus Verticordia" is a prime example of Rossetti's mature style, where he combines mythological themes with his own personal symbolism. This painting not only contributes to the Pre-Raphaelite movement's characteristics of detailed naturalism and complex symbolism but also underscores Rossetti's fascination with the power and mystery of feminine beauty and allure.
