1. Renaissance art is the painting, sculpture and decorative arts of that period of European
history known as the Renaissance, emerging as a distinct style in Italy in about 1400, in
parallel with developments which occurred in philosophy, literature, music and science.
Renaissance art, perceived as a "rebirth" of ancient traditions, took as its foundation the
art of Classical antiquity, but transformed that tradition by the absorption of recent
developments in the art of Northern Europe and by application of contemporary
scientific knowledge. Renaissance art, with Renaissance Humanist philosophy, spread
throughout Europe, affecting both artists and their patrons with the development of new
techniques and new artistic sensibilities. Renaissance art marks the transition of Europe
from the medieval period to the Early modern age.
In many parts of Europe, Early Renaissance art was created in parallel with Late Medieval
art. By 1500 the Renaissance style prevailed. As Late Renaissance art (Mannerism)
developed, it took on different and distinctive characteristics in every region.
2. ď‚— The influences upon the development of Renaissance art in the early 15th century are those that also
affected Philosophy, Literature, Architecture, Theology, Science, Government and other aspects of
society. The following list presents a summary, dealt with more fully in the main articles that are cited
above.
ď‚— Classical texts, lost to European scholars for centuries, became available. These included Philosophy,
Prose, Poetry, Drama, Science, a thesis on the Arts and Early Christian Theology.
ď‚— Simultaneously, Europe gained access to advanced mathematics which had its provenance in the
works of Islamic scholars.
ď‚— The advent of movable type printing in the 15th century meant that ideas could be disseminated
easily, and an increasing number of books were written for a broad public.
ď‚— The establishment of the Medici Bank and the subsequent trade it generated brought unprecedented
wealth to a single Italian city, Florence.
ď‚— Cosimo de' Medici set a new standard for patronage of the arts, not associated with the church or
monarchy.
ď‚— Humanist philosophy meant that man's relationship with humanity, the universe and with God was
no longer the exclusive province of the Church.
ď‚— A revived interest in the Classics brought about the first archaeological study of Roman remains by
the architect Brunelleschi and sculptor Donatello. The revival of a style of architecture based on
classical precedents inspired a corresponding classicism in painting and sculpture, which manifested
itself as early as the 1420s in the paintings of Masaccio and Uccello.
ď‚— The improvement of oil paint and developments in oil-painting technique by Netherlandish artists
such as Jan van Eyck, Rogier van der Weyden and Hugo van der Goes led to its adoption in Italy from
about 1475 and had ultimately lasting effects on painting practices, worldwide.
ď‚— The serendipitous presence within the region of Florence in the early 15th century of certain
individuals of artistic genius, most notably Masaccio, Brunelleschi, Ghiberti, Piero della Francesca,
Donatello and Michelozzo formed an ethos out of which sprang the great masters of the High
Renaissance, as well as supporting and encouraging many lesser artists to achieve work of
extraordinary quality.[1]
ď‚— A similar heritage of artistic achievement occurred in Venice through the talented Bellini family, their
influential inlaw Mantegna, Giorgione, Titian and Tintoretto.[1][2][3]
