Explain how medieval art differs from the Renaissance.

In the Middle Ages, art was characterized by regulation and the desire for religiosity. The painting, which was widespread at that time, included icons, frescoes on religious motives. The culture was not secular. Sometimes this did not allow the creator to develop the identity and unique traits. During the Renaissance, humanistic ideas spread. Gradually, the secularization of culture took place. Artists began to pay attention to real events, to paint landscapes and paintings with a common theme. The ability to express yourself has increased.
