The brief High Renaissance (c. 1500–1520) centered around Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo and Raphael in Florence and Rome, was a culmination of the Italian achievements, while artists like Albrecht Durer brought a similar level of intellectual and artistic innovation to northern Europe.
Late Renaissance painting, from about 1520 until the end of the 16th century, is marked by various Mannerist tendencies that spread from Italy through the rest of France.

Themes and symbolism
Renaissance artists painted a wide variety of themes.
Religious altarpieces, fresco cycles, and small works for private devotion were very popular.
For inspiration, painters in both Italy and northern Europe frequently turned to Jacobus de Voragine's Golden Legend (1260), a highly influential source book for the lives of saints that had already had a strong influence on Medieval artists.

The rebirth of classical antiquity and Renaissance humanism also resulted in many Mythological and history paintings. Ovidian stories, for example, were very popular.
Decorative ornament, often used in painted architectural elements, was especially influenced by classical Roman motifs.

The use ofperspective:
The first major treatment of the painting as a window into space appeared in the work of Giotto di Bondone, at the beginning of the 14th century.
True linear perspective was formalized later, by Filippo Brunelleschi and Leon Battista Alberti.
In addition to giving a more realistic presentation of art, it moved Renaissance painters into painting more paintings.
Techniques
![Page 12: Renaissance](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081413/54768f77b4af9f464d8b4573/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
foreshortening - The term foreshortening refers to the artistic effect of shortening lines in a drawing so as to create an illusion of depth. Sfumato - The term sfumato was coined by Italian Renaissance artist, Leonardo da Vinci, and refers to a fine art painting technique of blurring or softening of sharp outlines by subtle and gradual blending of one tone into another through the use of thin glazes to give the illusion of depth or three-dimensionality. This stems from the Italian word sfumare .
![Page 13: Renaissance](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081413/54768f77b4af9f464d8b4573/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
•chiaroscuro - The term chiaroscuro refers to the fine art painting modeling effect of using a strong contrast between light and dark to give the illusion of depth or three-dimensionality.
This comes from the Italian words meaning light (chiaro) and dark (scuro), a technique which came into wide use in the Baroque Period.; Sfumato is the opposite of chiaroscuro.
•Balance and Proportion- proper sizes and the use of airy, bright colors. The human anatomy wasn't as idealized as during the ancient times.

GiottoGiotto is considered to be the most influential
artist on Renaissance painting.Father of the RenaissanceGiotto’s dignified figures seemed to displace
space, to stand upon the ground with real substance and weight.
The figures seem to extend both backward, into the picture, and forward, toward the spectator’s space.
