Compared with medieval art, a major theme in renaissance art was

Renaissance art tried to retake the artistic concepts of the Greeks and Romans and highlight the ideals and values of the ancient age.  It is not an imitation but a movement that rescues and highlights classical customs and styles through research: a reinvention of Greco-Roman art.

During the Renaissance period the Church lost social power. The idea of religion and man was divided and the debates of reason versus faith were opened. In medieval times, suffering was considered a consequence of the evil acts of mankind before God. Renaissance art was born when this thought was changing: from this stage it was thought that the men and women suffer for lack of personal capacity, for their ignorance and for their own actions and no longer for divine punishment.

The concepts that defined the art of the Renaissance were: order, proportion, harmony, rhythm, measure, symmetry, perspective and eurythmy. In the field of painting, the techniques most used at this time were the fresco, oil and tempera. The themes were religious although there was also an emergence of mythological, portraits and allegorical themes.

Another element of Renaissance art was the educational dimension. For the Renaissance, knowledge was universal because the human ideal was universal. During this time, knowledge of engineering, hydraulics, anatomy and mechanics was promoted. The changes that influenced the concept of knowledge were: the discovery of America, the rupture of Christianity with the arrival of Protestant thoughts and the heliocentric theory of Copernicus. All this led to demystification of medieval thoughts.

federal power is further limited with a system of checks and balances that gives each branch of government a measure of power over the others.
