 | | Central to the development of Renaissance art was the emergence of the artist as a creator, sought after and respected for his erudition and imagination. |  | | Central to their thinking was a faith in the theoretical foundations of art and the conviction that development and progress were not only possible but essential to the life and significance of the arts. |  | | The art of the High Renaissance, however, sought a general, unified effect of pictorial representation or architectural composition, increasing the dramatic force and physical presence of a work of art and gathering its energies and forming a controlled equilibrium. |

 | | The Renaissance is characterized by a focus on the arts of Ancient Greece and Rome, which led to many changes in both the technical aspects of painting and sculpture, as well as to their subject matter. |  | | This genre of art is often referred to as Renaissance Classicism. |  | | The sculptor Donatello returned to classical techniques such as contrapposto and classical subjects like the unsupported nude - his second sculpture of David was the first free-standing bronze nude created in Europe since the Roman Empire. |

 | | The Renaissance was a time of a great flowering for art, even as the name suggests. |  | | Whereas the Byzantine artist meant his art to be a symbol of a truth deeper than the eye could see, the Renaissance artist's penchant for realism limited his ability to create art with symbolic meaning. |  | | Many of the art forms of the Renaissance were carried over by Catholicism, except that a ban on nude art was administered by various popes. |

 | | Technical processes taken advantage of by early Renaissance printmakers, combined with an increasing demand for visual images and the rising status of the artist, created the conditions sufficient for the elevation of printed works from the purely functional realm of illustration to the sphere of art, where they were valued in their own right. |  | | These provincial adaptations of classicism are remarkably free of local vulgarization, although the crude lettering on the gateway in Trebova, which was inspired by a triumphal arch, shows that the norm of purity had its exceptions. |  | | The Renaissance in printmaking ends, therefore, around thirty years before the death of Michelangelo because commercially motivated publishers reversed the status of the print by emphasizing the reproductive element of the medium, thereby deterring artists from taking up the medium for its innovative potential. |
