Knowledge – History: The Renaissance Period

A group course on the Renaissance Period. One of the most notable periods in the history of art was the Renaissance. There was a notable change in creative expression throughout this period. A resurgence of interest in the traditional concepts and creative methods of classical Greece and Rome defined it. This artistic movement became known as Renaissance art. This brought out a fresh surge of inventiveness, humanism, and ingenuity.

Realistic depictions of the human body were emphasized in Renaissance art. Which was one of its fundamental characteristics. To give their paintings depth and three dimensionality, artists used chiaroscuro. The use of light and shadow and perspective to depict the beauty and intricacy of the human figure. A rising interest in the natural world and the person was reflected in this shift. From the more abstract and symbolic art of the Middle Ages to a concentration on the human form.
