Presentation Transcript

  1. Renaissance Art The influence of humanism during its first two hundred years transformed much of Europe’s intellectual and creative activity. New inspirations were found, in fields as different as political theory and epic poetry, among the writers of Greece and Rome. Military strategy was rethought; universities changed their curricula. But the most spectacular impact was on the visual arts, whose radiance and originality have come to represent the era as a whole. The very appreciation of genius was a by-product of humanist thought and helped transform the artist into one of the most honored and admired figures in society. Theodore K. Rabb, Renaissance Lives
