Nanni d'Antonio di Banco was a sculptor from
Florence, Italy, whose significance lays in naturalism and individuality of the
figures in his artworks, but also the complexity of construction of a sculptures
which represent a group. He achieved unified spatial composition by placing the
figures in the semicircle and in relation to one another, such as sculpture “Quattro
Santi Coronati”.
One of the main differences between the renaissance mass and a renaissance motet is that the mass is always based on a specific text that is part of the liturgy of a given day. Motet is not connected to some specific text that is part of the liturgy but is also like the mass usually sacred.
