First, I didn't really get the question............but I just wanted to point out that the painting is based on Christianity and Mythology.....not a Christian Myth.
The painting depicts the Roman Myth of Venus arising from the sea after she is formed by the foam created by her father's balls being thrown into the sea.
The Christian perspective shows the story as a parallel to Baptism(sometimes even compared to Jesus' Baptism).

What is the predominant subject of art in the Roman and Byzantine world from the third century to the Renaissance?
It was Christian religious themes.
How was northern renaissance art similar to and different from the art of the Italian renaissance?
The art of the Italian and Northern Renaissance shared similar qualities, but also had its differences. As the Italian Renaissance focused more on a rebirth of classic Greco-Roman culture, the art of the time was based off of classical mythology and included famous classic philosophers. In Raphael's School of Athens, Aristotle and Plato are featured in the center of the school. On the contrary, the Northern Renaissance art was characterized by domestic interiors and portraits. Northern Renaissance artists, starting with Jan Van Eyck, began to use different mediums, such as oil paint, to create the art of the movement. The two different eras share a commonality in art through religious themes throughout the art. Christian religious stories and figures were the predominant artistic theme in both times.

Are there any connections to religion to the Birth of Venus by Sandro Botticelli?
No, there is nothing religious about the Birth of Venus. It depicts the goddess Venus coming out of the water at the moment of her birth. The god Zephir and the nymph Chloris blow her to shore. On land, Primavera awaits with a blanket to enfold her. I would say that it had references to pagan religions, particularly that of the Romans since Venus was a Roman goddess.<<<<<<That is false. Pagan religion was not being practiced at the time Botticelli was alive. Birth of Venus actually depicts mythology and religion at the same time. Botticelli needed to do this to please the people who studied the humanities, but also people of faith. While the image depicts Venus' birth from the sea(Venus was formed from the foam created from her father's genitals being thrown into the sea), but this can also coincide with the Christian practice of Baptism. Because Venus is a 'divine' figure emerging from water, the story can correlate with a divine figure's Baptism(leading to a connection to Jesus' Baptism). The theory that religious beliefs and humanistic studies can coincide is called Neoplatonism. For more information on this topic, visit the link to website below.
