The search for the perfect natural proportions also led the Greek sculpture establish certain standards of beauty that although absolutely naturalists were alienated from everyday reality. The proportions of ideal human bodies were rigid rules, so that the sculptural work was a search and a consequence ofse canons: for example, the height of male body should correspond approximately seven and a half times the height of head (reclaimed wood wall art).
The painters then passed to increase the realism ofir work using the new techniques of perspective (recently rediscovered and well developed), representing a more realistic three dimensions. The manipulation of light and and shadow, present in work of Ticciano with contrasting tones, was performed excellently by chiaroscuro techniques developed by Leonardo da Vinci. The sculptors also rediscover many ancient techniques.
Many elements of Greek and Roman architecture were also adopted, but the great innovation of Renaissance architecture will be the improvement of construction of domes, highlighting the dome of Santa Maria del Fiore in Florence. Following the humanistic spirit of period, the arts turned to more secular themes, motifs looking at adding them to Christian themes classical mythology.
This kind of arts is often called Renaissance classicism. The three most influential Renaissance arts are Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo Buonarroti and Raphael Sanzio, belonging to Italian Renaissance. Another figure equally important but less known Renaissance (in this case, of Flemish painting) is Jan van Eyck, Dutch painter.
In European arts, Renaissance Classicism led on two different movements: Mannerism and Baroque. The first, a reaction against the idealist perfection of Classicism, employed distortion of light and space in work in order to emphasize its emotional content and emotions of artist. Baroque arts led representation techniques from the Renaissance to new heights, emphasizing detail and movement inir pursuit of beauty. Perhaps the best known Baroque painters are Rembrandt, Rubens and Velazquez.
Mannerism is a period of transition and profound crisis of arts. Young arts, raised in veneration of office of his great predecessors (Michelangelo, Leonardo and Raphael) believe most ofse achievements insurmountable. Alternatives to continue its wake are tested: imitate the style -the maniera, which names the based on further complicate foreshortening and contrasts, or look strange colors and harmonies, or represent allegories strange that even in his time were obscure to uninitiated.
In construction of cathedrals is sought to create a "mystical" feeling inside ofm, ie interiors to recreate a "heavenly" atmosphere, an effect that becomes more noticeable in Gothic sought. One thing to note is the appearance of unions in this period, bringing together arts who held a monopoly on practical knowledge of particular branch of production.
As time passed, many arts were demonstrating contrary to ornamentalism of previous styles, and seek to return to prior arts, simpler, Renaissance, forming the style that will be known as Neoclassicism. The neoclassical was the arts component of intellectual movement known as the Enlightenment, which was equally idealistic. Ingres, Canova and Jacques-Louis David are among the best known neoclassical. In architecture theorists will adopt new forms of Roman and Renaissance arts, but defending the rationality and functionality of buildings and discarding the dynamism and ornamental elements that had characterized the previous stage. Another feature of neoclassical architecture is its monumentality, used in order to compare the kingdoms and empires of time with the grandeur of Roman Empire.
