 Botticelli was born in a house in the same street as the church, still called Via Borgo Ognissanti.He was to live within a minute or two's walk of this all his life, and to be buried in the church.In 1464 Botticelli's father bought a house in Via Nuova nearby (modern Via della Porcellana), which Sandro took over in 1470 and lived in for the rest of his life.
