How Did Gothic Art And Architecture Influence The Renaissance

The Gothic Age to the Renaissance changed various aspects of art and architecture especially by the influence of religious beliefs. Some other influences came from the ideas antiquity and humanity, but most importantly from leading artists during those times that were influenced by one another’s work. The name “Gothic” was not created until.. The High Renaissance is most known as an enlightened period, because they showed a more realistic and detailed perspective of the world as it was. However, both periods shared an immense amount of importance to religious beliefs in which it was shown within their art.

One example of the architecture from the Gothic period and the Renaissance changed was the construction of cathedrals. The Gothic cathedrals

were very tall with stain-glass windows, flying buttresses, and rib vaults. Filippo Brunelleshci, a Early Renaissance artist, helped form the dome and the resources in order for it to be constructed. The dome of the Cathedral was very complex and took many years to be built, however with the help of Brunelleshci machinery it helped construct the shape and finish it.
A few artists from the Early Renaissance that influenced later artists from the High Renaissance are Giotto, Brunelleschi, and Masaccio.

Giotto introduced the three-dimensional space that later influenced other artists. In addition, perspectives were renewed by making the art more realistic to that of earth and human. Thus, allowing later artists to create new and innovated techniques and methods of art. Brunelleschi created linear perspective as a new method that allowed a three-dimensional space to portray illusionism. Masaccio also used this new method in his art work as well as atmospheric perspective. Eventually this influences many other later artists from the High Renaissance such as Michelangelo.

One of many great artists from the High Renaissance was Leonardo Da Vinci. He shared the same style of painting with Michelangelo and Raphael. The art work resulted of amazing images that consisted of using both perspective and illusionism that helped give the perfect amount of detail. Leonardo used several Elements of Art as well as Principles of Art some of them included emphasis, contrast, and proportion. He also created his own painting technique in which he applied a hazy glaze over his art work called “sfumato”. Leonardo’s paintings are different from that of the Gothic Age,
