“Renaissance as the Best Art Period”




I believe that the renaissance period is the best art period and the most influencial as well. Because knowing that Renaissance means “Rebirth” it speaks for itself the rebirth of art from the ancient art to pre-modern art. And In this Era , comes the great artists namely Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci, Raphael, and many more. These guys are famous in their field of art each have their own techniques. Techniques that makes them unique from other artists. In doing art, it’s unpredictable if you’ll have someone that has the same technique.
           

            The Renaissance Period of art was divided into five time frames. Which is Proto-Renaissance in Italy, 1280-1400, Early Netherlandish art, 1400-1525, Early Renaissance in Italy, 1400-1479, Early Renaissance in France, 1385-1520, High Renaissance in Italy, 1475-1525. During these time frames the growth of renaissance art bloomed. Artist’s ideas started to brighten up. Renaissance artists painted a wide variety of themes. Religious altarpieces, fresco cycles, and small works for private devotion were very popular. For inspiration, painters in both Italy and northern Europe frequently turned to Jacobus de Voragine's Golden Legend (1260), a highly influential source book for the lives of saints that had already had a strong influence on Medieval artists. The rebirth of classical antiquity and Renaissance humanism also resulted in many Mythological and history paintings. Ovidian stories, for example, were very popular. Decorative ornament, often used in painted architectural elements, was especially influenced by classical Roman motifs.

 

           

          And here are some of the influences of Renaissance in the history of art and design which will justify that renaissance is the the best and most influencial era in my own opinion. 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.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.” And lastly, “Humanist philosophy meant that man's relationship with humanity, the universe and with God was no longer the exclusive province of the Church.” These are the influences that I find very influencial in the list of the influences there are a lot more. Try to see for your self.
