The edges of humanism of the Renaissance in the mid-13th – the mid-16th century: Part 2

Abstract

This work is the second part of the publication: Demchenko A. I. The edges of humanism of the Renaissance in the mid-13th – the mid-16th century: Part 1 // Pan-Art. 2024. Vol. 4. No. 2. This essay is dedicated to examining the art and culture of the Renaissance period, which ushered in Modern times, spanning from the mid-13th to the mid-16th century. The previous part of the publication covered the transition period from the Early Renaissance to the Proto-Renaissance. This part of the essay explores the features of the formation of the renaissance style, culminating in the late 15th – early 16th century. This stage is rightfully called the High Renaissance – the time of the creation of masterpieces by Leonardo da Vinci, Raphael, Michelangelo and Durer. Through a review of key Renaissance artifacts (from literature and music to painting and sculpture), the author substantiates the immense significance of this era, rightfully considered the “Golden age” of art, for the subsequent development of European artistic culture.
