The Renaissance refers to a time of rebirth in the arts resulting from the rediscovery of ancient Greek and Roman culture. This classical influence led to a renewed emphasis on the individual and the present, which translated into greater naturalism in art. Watch the visual impact of these developments unfold in select Italian artworks from the 15th century.
