Unit 5: Renaissance.

As I have mentioned before throughout this blog, I found the renaissance era one of the best times that ever existed in the history of art and humanity. This, because most of my favorite painters as Botticelli, Donatello and Michelangelo rose at that time. It was an era of renovation. An era in which thankfully, the darkness and horribleness from the medieval times were taken away. Almost everything was going to be created from scratch and new inventions emerged. But, if talked about inventions and paintings, there is Leonardo da Vinci. It is laughable to notice that “La Giaconda” or “Mona Lisa” of da Vinci is the most known painting in the world and almost no one knows the era in which it was painted. I believe that if it was not because of the renaissance, the world of art and humanity would have never progressed. Thanks to renaissance, painting techniques, themes and materials, paintings became finer, delicate, more detailed, clearer and simply more beautiful. If it was not for “La Giaconda” of da Vinci or for “Venus” by Botticelli, the world of paintings, humanity and all kinds of art,  would have never find the light for progress. The renaissance era is for me, the light of the world.
