Renaissance

The Renaissance was a historical age that followed the Middle Ages and preceded the Protestant Reformation, spanning roughly the 14th through the 16th century. The Renaissance saw a revival of science and philosophy, as well as new techniques in art, poetry, and architecture.

Renaissance art includes Lenoardo Da Vinci's painting of the Last Supper, as well as Michaelango's statue of young David and his paintings on the celing of the Sistine Chapel.
