Renaissance
The word “Renaissance” is the French word for “rebirth.” The Renaissance refers to the rebirth of humanism during the 14th, 15th and 16th centuries in Europe. The Renaissance period was a time of rebirth of humanism and new discoveries in fine arts, music, literature, philosophy, science, and technology, architecture, religion, and spirituality.
Fine Arts
Sculptors such as Donatello and later Michelangelo went back to classical techniques like contrapposto, and classical subjects like the unsupported nude. Painters began to utilize methods of realism by improving skills in three-dimensional perspective. Painters began to veer away from religious themes and focused more on people and landscapes. Leonardo Da Vinci, Raphael, and Michelangelo Buonarroti were some of the most prominent Renaissance painters.
