Explanation:
Renaissance works (paintings, sculptures, books) had common characteristics:
- Rescuing the aesthetics of Greco-Roman culture, mainly the search for perfection in the elaboration of sculptures and paintings;
- Perspective: figure art, in drawing or painting, the different distances and proportions between objects seen at a distance, according to the principles of mathematics and geometry.
- Use of chiaroscuro: painting some areas of light and others in the shade, this game of contrasts reinforces the suggestion of volume of the bodies.
- Realism: Renaissance artists no longer see man as a simple observer of the world that expresses the greatness of God, but as the greatest expression of God himself. And the world is thought of as a reality to be understood scientifically, and not just admired.
- Anthropocentrism: valuing the artistic and intellectual capacities of human beings;
- Valorization of science and reason, seeking rational explanations for natural and social events;
- Appreciation and interest in various cultural and scientific aspects (literature, fine arts, scientific research).
- Humanism: set of principles that valued human actions and moral values (respect, justice, honor, love, freedom, solidarity, etc.).
