Renaissance ArtBeginning in Italy in the late 14th century, a revolution in the arts took place. Painting, sculpture, literature, architecture, music, dance, poetry – no area within the fine or performing arts was left untouched. This revolution was spurred on by the intellectual hallmarks of the Renaissance: humanism, individualism & secularism. Modern art was born in the Renaissance and the role of the artist was transformed from craftsman to intellectual and social critic. To be an artist meant you held a mirror up to society, you challenged traditional ideas, you offered a view of the world that was and could be.

Interior of Notre Dame
Gothic architecture was meant to inspire a sense of awe and fear in those who entered the building. The cathedral was a house of God and you were intended to remember that at all times.

The humanist movement of the Renaissance carries on
to this day. Across the world people continue to design
buildings that echo or copy the style of ancient Rome
and Greece.

St. Peter’s BasilicaInterior Views
St. Peter’s is literally, and to many figuratively, the greatest church in Christendom. It was built and designed by several of the leading architects including Michelangelo. It contains artwork by many of the great Renaissance artists. It is the seat of the Vatican which is the center or capital of the Roman Catholic Church.

St. Andrew13th Century
An Elderly Man as Saint PeterRembrandt – 1659(?)
The saints were the most common form of portraiture in Medieval art. In the Renaissance, artists commonly painted their patrons. They were painted as themselves or placed into a classical or religious scene. In the Northern Renaissance, Rembrandt above all others painted many portraits of “commoners.” Usually these were straight portraits but he would also use them as “models.”

MichelangeloGenius of His Age
Michelangelo Buonarroti was born in Florence in 1475. He was a painter, a sculptor, architect and poet. “He was the first artist recognized by contemporaries as a genius.” He was a prolific artist who worked in Florence and Rome two of the major centers of Renaissance art. He produced several of the greatest works of western art and is the author of arguably the greatest artwork in history, the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel. While Da Vinci’s Mona Lisa is the most recognizable painting in the world, Michelangelo’s David is an equally iconic image. He died in 1564 with literally hundreds of works left behind in the great and small villas, homes, and churches in Italy.
![Page 27: Transition from Medieval Times to the Renaissance](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062310/568164e0550346895dd74095/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Michelangelo designed the dome on St. Peter’s (546-1564). It is considered one of the great feats of Western architecture. The brick dome 138 feet in diameter rises 452 feet above the street, and 390 feet above the floor, with four iron chains for a compression ring. Four internal piers each 60 feet square. The dome is 452 ft high (above the pavement) and is buttressed by the apses and supported internally by four massive piers more than 18 meters (60 feet) thick. It inspired many including Sir Christopher Wren’s St. Paul’s Cathedral in London.

The Vitruvian Man
This is a study in proportions. Da Vinci was a man of reason and logic. He studied classical works and architecture and always sought to have things in proportion based on mathematical formulas. Notice the basic shapes of square, triangle and circle contained in the sketch.
