Early Renaissance

The Early Renaissance

Centered in Italy, 15 th Century

The Renaissance was a period or great creative activity, in which artists broke away from the restrictions of Byzantine Art. Throughout the 15, artists studied the natural world, perfecting their understanding of such subjects as anatomy and perspective.

Among the many great artists of this period were Paolo Uccello, Sandro Botticelli, Domenico Ghirlandaio, and Piero della Francesca.

During this period there was a parallel advancement of Gothic Art centered in Germany and the Netherlands, known as the Northern Renaissance.

The Early Renaissance was succeeded by the mature High Renaissance period, which began around 1500.
