took place during different times, and renaissance was more about art, and the beauty of thing.
Renaissance Art indulged in a movement called "Humanism". Humanism was traced back to Classical times. The Greeks believed that "Man was the measure of all things." Renaissance literally means "rebirth" or "revival". It was the revival of classical teachings and studies. Medieval times did not have humanist movements. Medieval times were synonymous with the Dark Ages. The Plague and many strict religious movements occurred during this time. Medieval art was simple and devoutly religious, or it consisted of merely patterns and calligraphy. Celtic knots, for example, emerged during medieval art. Renaissance Art included far more. Renaissance Art encompassed everything from the late Byzantine period to the very early Mannerist and Baroque paintings. Renaissance Art had images of religious figures (Jesus, Mary, St. Gabriel, God, etc.) in various situations. Medieval Art was similarly religious. However, during the Renaissance, people were more concerned with life on Earth than they were with their lives after death. During the Medieval times, religious art was intended to put fear into the hearts of the viewers. Religious art was supposed to frighten the humble worshiper and inspire fear and love in his heart. Renaissance Art shifted the focus to the importance of "Man" (hence the humanist movement). Man's life on Earth out shadowed his life after death. This was a skeletal explanation.

Symbolism was a major part of Italian/northern Renaissance art, and dogs were used to symbolize loyalty.
