First to mind is the artist Sandro Botticelli, who sadly threw many of his own pieces on a bonfire during the Medieval period.

The Birth of Venus

I'll be back to add more later! Great thread, TX!

Tried to put it up but have no idea how to do it.
Pink Dawn is the name of the painting.
His work is hauntingly beautiful.
