RENAISANCE ART

What is renaisance art

Renaissance art is the painting, sculpture and decorative arts of the period of European history, 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 the noblest of ancient traditions, took as its foundation the art of Classical antiquity, but transformed that tradition
by absorbing recent developments in the art of Northern Europe and by applying contemporary scientific knowledge.
