IV. BRIEF INTRODUCTION

Renaissance Period (1400-1600)


Renaissance was the period of economic progress. The period stirred enthusiasm for the
study of ancient philosophy and artistic values.
Italian Renaissance began in the late 14th century. It was an era of great artistic and
intellectual achievement with the birth of secular art. The focus was on realistic and humanistic
art.
Renaissance art was characterized by accurate anatomy, scientific perspective, and deeper
landscape.
Renaissance painters depicted real-life figures and their sculptures were naturalistic
portraits of human beings.
Architecture during this period was characterized by its symmetry and balance.
As the classical Greeks believed in the harmonious development of the person through a
sound mind, by the practice of athletics, the Renaissance held up the ideal of the well-rounded
person, knowledgeable in a number of fields such as philosophy, science, arts, including painting
and music – and who applies his/her knowledge to productive and creative activity.
The Renaissance was a period of artistic experimentation. It brought people into a full view
just like the human figures in Greek Art.
Renaissance art marks the transition of Europe from the medieval period to the early
modern age. In many parts of Europe, Early Renaissance art was created in parallel with Late
Medieval art. By 1500, the Renaissance style prevailed.

Baroque Art (1600-1800)


The greatest cathedral building of the age was the rebuilding of St. Peter’s Basilica in Rome.
The term Baroque was derived from the Portuguese word “barocco” which means
“irregularly shaped pearl or stone.” It describes a fairly complex idiom and focuses on painting,
sculpture, as well as architecture.
After the idealism of Renaissance, and the slightly forced nature of “mannerism”, Baroque
art above all reflects the tensions of the age notably the desire of the Catholic Church in Rome to
reassert itself in the wake of the Protestant Reformation which is almost the same with Catholic-
Reformation Art of the period.
Although always in conflict with the simple, clear, and geometric concepts of classicism, the
Baroque existed in varying degrees of intensity, from a simple animated movement of lines and
surfaces, to a rich and dynamic wealth.
Baroque was a period of artistic styles in exaggerated motion, drama, tension, and
grandeur. The style started in Rome, Italy and spread to most of Europe.
The Roman Catholic Church highly encouraged the Baroque style to propagate Christianity
while the aristocracy used Baroque style for architecture and arts to impress visitors, express
triumph, power, and control.
Baroque painting illustrated key elements of Catholic dogma, either directly in Biblical
works or indirectly in imaginary or symbolic work. The gestures are broader than Mannerist
gestures: less ambiguous, less arcane, and mysterious.
Baroque sculpture, typically larger than life size, is marked by a similar sense of dynamic
movement, along with an active use of space.
Baroque architecture was designed to create spectacle and illusion. Thus, the straight lines
of the Renaissance were replaced with flowing curves.

V. ACTIVITIES
Directions: Describe the following artworks from Renaissance and Baroque. Is anything

VI. REMEMBER

Arts of the Renaissance Period covers artworks produced during the 14th, 15th and 16th
centuries in Europe. The word “renaissance” comes from the word, “renaitre”, which means, “rebirth.”
It pertains to arts, particularly in Italy, such as sculptures, paintings, music, architecture, and
literature. The most common subject of this period is human philosophy. Famous artists of this era
were Michelangelo, Leonardo Da Vinci, Raphael and Donatello.

The arts of the Baroque Period are more elaborate and fuller of emotion. They developed in
Europe around the 1600’s. This type of art form was highly encouraged by the Catholic Church to
propagate its dogma. Artists who were popular during this era were Caravaggio, Rubens, Velasquez,
Rembrandt, and Bernini.
