Titian’s Venus of Urbino had nothing on my Afro-dite or Urban Venus. A woman of color fits nicely in place of the Renaissance ideal beauty. I thank Sarah Loubeau for sitting for the portrait. Although a specific and very beautiful Haitian portrait was used, this Venus is symbolic for all women of color.
