The Influence of Renaissance Art on Modern Painting Techniques
Main Article Content
Abstract
Paintings from the Renaissance had a significant and long-lasting effect on the painting methods used in current art. The Renaissance, which was distinguished by its emphasis on realism and its resurrection of ancient art, was the period that established the groundwork for a great number of artistic developments that continue to have an impact on the artwork of today. The purpose of this concept is to investigate the ways in which Renaissance painters like as Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo, and Raphael pioneered innovative approaches in perspective, anatomy, and chiaroscuro that continue to be essential characteristics of contemporary painting. The purpose of this research is to shed light on the enduring legacy of the Renaissance era in shaping the way artists approach their craft in the present day. This is accomplished through a comparative analysis of key artworks from the Renaissance period and their influence on renowned contemporary painters.
