European Renaissance
(1300-1600)
Northern Italy: Birth place of the Renaissance
Renaissance= Rebirth
(Rebirth of art and learning
Cities were the center of action
Milan and Florence had wealthy merchants and bankers
Artists in these cities were inspired by the former splendor of classical Greece and Rome
MERCHANTS AND THE MEDICI
Merchants dominated political life
The Medici were a powerful banking family
They paid artists writers and musicians to create beautiful works of art
THEY WHERE CALLED PATRONS
