"If it’s Renaissance shouldn’t she be quite chubby?"

You're thinking of the Baroque. Renaissance ideals of beauty pretty much fell in line with those of Greece and Rome, and pretty much in line with today's conventions...

No, I mean Renaissance with reference to the ‘Venus’ nudes in particular. I guarantee that woman does not have hips, thighs and a belly like those nudes. And I doubt the boobs are real either. Renaissance my foot.
