The historical period preceding the Renaissance in Europe was the Middle Ages, which had a very strong focus on God and everything related to Jesus and soul salvation. This focus was central to the lives of every Christian. Art, as an indication of the taste, times and concerns of the people who produce it was thus almost exclusively created around religious themes.
As an unexpected consequence of the Crusades (eleventh to thirteenth centuries A.D.), the expeditions organized by western Europeans to reconquer the Holy Land from the infidel Muslims, many Europeans got in contact with books, of all sorts of subjects, produced by the ancient Greeks and Romans which had been translated and even commented (enhanced) by the Arabs. A taste for the "classics" (ancient Greek and Roman works) gradually emerged among the Europeans in the Middle East and some even brought it back to Western Europe, especially the Genoese and the Venetian merchants. The focus of these works was mainly centered on man and all of its aspects: physical, mental, spiritual, etc. Whereas the medieval art was always solemn and excessively serious, always focused on religious themes, the art and thinking of the Renaissance took many of the values of the ancient Greek and Roman societies and granted a lot of importance to man again. The Renaissance began as an attempt to replicate (faithfully copy) the works of the Classic Antiquity in science, politics, philosophy, art (painting, sculpture, architecture), etc.
The invention of the printing press in Germany in the mid 1400s made books cheaper and easier to acquire, and contributed to the rapid spread of the forgotten ideas of the Greeks and Romans and a radical change of thinking somewhat less centered in God.

Lincoln said "When, early in the war, General Fremont attempted military emancipation, I forbade it, because I did not then think it an indispensable necessity. When, a little later, General Cameron, then Secretary of War, suggested the arming of the blacks, I objected, because I did not yet think it an indispensable necessity. When, still later, General Hunter attempted military emancipation, I forbade it, because I did not yet think the indispensable necessity had come.
Factories wouldn’t have developed if it weren’t for the industrial revolution. The Industrial Revolution wouldn’t have happened if it weren’t for the great inventions that led its birth. These inventions are the Spinning Jenny, the Water Frame, the Steam Engine and the Locomotive. The Spinning Jenny was a machine that could spin threads of wool. The Water frame was a large wheel that was turned by running water. The Steam Engine used steam to create energy to power a machine. The Locomotive was the first train that could transport people on roads.
