Aside from textual evidence of the Devas, there is potentially stronger evidence in some of the most popular renaissance paintings of the gods and goddesses. After all the word renaissance itself means ‘rebirth’. In the Devas origin story paper; Ouranos – From Creation to Creation, it’s mentioned that the renaissance paintings may -indeed- have actually happened, and not just a figment of the artists’ imagination. However, modern human comprehension has not witnessed a Deva in human form, or anything of religious origin in every day mundane life, therefore these paintings appear mythological, fantastical, imaginary and fantasy based.
One example is the Birth of Venus painting;
The Birth of Venus (Italian: Nascita di Venere[ˈnaʃʃita di ˈvɛːnere]) is a painting by the Italian artist Sandro Botticelli, probably executed in the mid 1480s. It depicts the goddess Venus arriving at the shore after her birth, when she had emerged from the sea fully-grown (called Venus Anadyomene and often depicted in art). The painting is in the Uffizi Gallery in Florence, Italy.
In the centre the newly born goddess Venus stands nude in a giant scallop shell. The size of the shell is purely imaginary, and is also found in classical depictions of the subject.[3] At the left the wind god Zephyr blows at her, with the wind shown by lines radiating from his mouth. He is in the air, and carries a young female, who is also blowing, but less forcefully. Both have wings. Vasari was probably correct in identifying her as “Aura”, personification of a lighter breeze.[4] Their joint efforts are blowing Venus towards the shore, and blowing the hair and clothes of the other figures to the right.[5]

The Birth of Venus is depicting a mythological event that actually happened! The goddess of Venus appeared/materialized in human form for the first time (‘birth’) with the help of the water and air elements/gods and goddesses. The full name of Venus is, Venus Anadyomene[1] (from Greek, “Venus Rising From the Sea”), and coincides with other instances of fish and human combinations.
