Collection: Renaissance

The Renaissance was a cultural movement that began in 14th-century Italy and spread across Europe by the 16th century. It revived interest in classical antiquity, humanism, and the study of nature and individuals. Artists and thinkers combined beauty, proportion, and scientific observation, leading to advances in perspective, anatomy, and realism. This era produced masterpieces like Michelangelo’s David and Leonardo da Vinci’s Mona Lisa. The Renaissance reshaped art, science, and philosophy, setting new standards that inspired generations of artists and thinkers.
