Painters in the renaissance made major achievements in art. how is the renaissance painting different from the older painting?

Renaissance- is a transitional epoch from the Middle Ages to the new age, when there is a sharp rise of European culture. It acquires a more secular character than in the Middle Ages, in the center of art and literature is an active person who absorbs all the features of the world (microcosm-macrocosm), his life acquires an independent value, not Is the moment on the way to eternity. Political Thought (the same Niccolo Machiavelli) is formed, and the civic values of antiquity become an ideal. In socio-economic terms-there is a formation of early capitalist relations, and the bourgeoisie develops as a special layer of society.  

The Renaissance, first of all, is observed in the Italian cities-Florence, Venice, Genoa, Pisa, etc., but also in Holland.
