Renaissance Sculptures

history of renaissance sculpture art

During the Renaissance, art and science merged which allowed artists to use mathematics to master linear perspective. This allowed them to create more 3D images, something never explored in art before. This led artists to try to render the most realistic images and sculptures they possibly could, an art movement now known as Naturalism.
