The Renaissance Era
The Renaissance was a fervent period of European cultural, artistic, political and scientific “rebirth” after the Middle Ages. Classical art, spanning from the 14th to the 17th century, is iconic for its emphasis on symmetry, proportion, geometry and the regularity of parts seen in classical architecture and sculpture.
Baroque and Beyond
The Baroque style, emerging in the 17th century, focused on dramatic, often exuberant art forms with bold ornamentation. This was the age of masters like Caravaggio and Bernini, influencing areas as diverse as painting, sculpture, and music.
