Patronage by the Catholic Church led to an abudance of religious art during the Renaissance.

Realism

Creation of Adam (cropped)

c. 1508-1512 by Michelangelo c. 1536-1541

What makes Renaissance paintings and sculptures so different than the art created during the Medieval period is the realistic representation of humans and nature. Using techniques such as perspective and foreshortening, the Renaissance artists managed to create an illusion of three dimensions. The Last Judgement is an example of New Protestant art, which depicts a more personal relationship with God, replacing the previous era's works that showed pictures form Bible stories.

Visual content is a cross-cutting, universal language, like music. We are able to understand images from millions of years ago, even from other cultures. We better grasp visual content. Visual content is associated with cognitive and psychological mechanisms. Things enter through the eyes, the first image is what counts. We associate visual content with emotions. Our brain is prepared to consume visual content. Some data: 90% of the information we process comes through sight, and we process visual content up to 60,000 times faster than text. That’s why visual communication is more effective.

Sfumato

Nativity (The Holy Night)

by Antonio da Correggioc. 1529-1530

"Sfumato" in art refers to a painting technique where colors and tones are blended so subtly that there are no harsh outlines, creating a soft, smoky appearance, often used to depict a sense of depth and atmosphere, with the word itself deriving from the Italian "sfumare" meaning "to evaporate like smoke". The Mona Lisa in particular uses this style to reflect the emerging role of women during the Renaissance Period.

florence's duomo (inside)

by Brunelleschic. 1436 (completed)

Florence's duomo (a term meaning a church with features of, or having been built to serve as, a cathedral) was built in horizontal layers for more structural stability. It was built without formwork and used wooden machines to build it. Both examples above reflect reconnection to Roman artchitectural concepts and techniques.

Excerpt:CLAUDIUS "My fault is past. But, O, what form of prayer Can serve my turn? 'Forgive me my foul murder'? That cannot be; since I am still possess'd Of those effects for which I did the murder— My crown, mine own ambition, and my queen."

Excerpt:OBERON "What thou seest when thou dost wake Do it for thy true love take. Love and languish for his sake. Be it ounce, or cat, or bear, Pard, or boar with bristled hair, In thy eye that shall appear When thou wak’st, it is thy dear. Wake when some vile thing is near."
