Renaissance,artists were no longer regarded as mere artisans(工匠).Many artists drew on mathematics in order to become more accurate in their measurements(度量)and to make sure an object was presented in realistic proportions.They also studied the way light hits objects and the ways our eyes perceive it.A new kind of paint,called oil paint,was invented.
The Renaissance affected all of the society.Many people became interested in politics,and the world outside their towns.They became explorers,businessmen,etc.The effect on religion was especially strong.In the Middle Ages people were primarily concerned with serving the church and getting to heaven.But the increase in arts
and education gave
people things to look forward to in life,and made them lose interest in the church.
The
Renaissance
produced
many
great minds.Leonardo da Vinci was one of the greatest,although he was not regarded that way at the time.Among his many works of art were Mona Lisa and The Last Supper.He is also regarded as a great inventor,and is credited for coming up with the idea of the helicopter.
