Florence
Renaissance architects took
                                  inspiration from buildings of
                                  classic antiquity. The
                                  emphasis is placed upon
                                  symmetry, proportion, and
                                  regularity of parts.

           fresco fragment in Sistine Chapel, Vatican
           By Michelangelo
 Sculptor, architect, town planner, inventor, engineer, mapmaker, painted Mona Lisa
 According to Vitruvius, if:

 the human head is 1/8th of
  the height of an idealized
  figure
 then, the human body itself
  fits into the ideal musical
  interval of the octave, the
  interval that gives the
  impression of duplicating the
  original note at a higher or
  lower pitch

 Leonardo illustrated how the
  human figure generates both
  the circle and the square
 wrote poetry, carved sculptures, painted ceiling of the Sistine Chapel

Notas do Editor

  1. This map shows the spread of the movement. First it developed in Florence in roughly 14 th century, then spread to the remainder of Italy. It didn’t move north yet, for 100 years war raged in northern Europe. When the war finished, Renaissance freely spread north and to Spain and Portugal. But then, Italian states began war with each other, so many remarkable scholars and artists were pushed out into other states, which allowed Northern Renaissance to flourish even more.
  2. Renaissance architects took inspiration from buildings of classic antiquity. The emphasis is placed upon symmetry, proportion, and regularity of parts. Architecture was an eminent part of the Renaissance, esp in Italy Renaissance architects mainly erected massive cathedrals, chapels, and churches, which shows that despite humanist ideas of the movement, the church was still a strong institution. Buildings were generally built for or requested by and sponsored by the church. In Northern Europe buildings were erected not only for ecclesiastical purposes: the renaissance came to England during the Elizabethan era, and constructions were meant for and sponsored by the crown and served diverse purposes than those of Italy St peters basilica is one of the most well known and breathtaking monument in Italy, and it was rebuilt during the renaissance
  3. Art was mostly developed by Italian masters, such as Michelangelo and Raphael, and later imitated by masters elsewhere. It is also greatly influenced by classicism. But meanwhile masters apply new techniques, and develop highly realistic linear perspective. They still focus on ecclesiastical themes and Biblical motifs, but at the same time we can see the changing ideas of the era – notes of humanism, changing images. After the Protestant revolution, renaissance masters might have sympathized with revolutionaries, but couldn’t freely express their views for fear of being persecuted by the Roman Catholic church. The only way they had was to indirectly express themselves in their works.
