What is the influence of Classical antiquity o Italian renaissance and neoclassical art?

The Renaissance was a period in history lasting from about 1450 to 1600 CE. Renaissance is a french word meaning rebirth. It is called this, because around that time, many Italians(and other Europeans) began to look back at the past, to such civilizations like Greece and early Rome. They saw the great successes of the past, and were in envy of them. Many of these people didnt onle envy the ancient Greeks, they wanted to model there own civilization after them. Many famous Italians did such. They wrote a new, exciting history in Art, as well as other subjects. There style was totaly new, but influenced by the Classical era art and sculptures. The Renaissance was a period of tumult as well, when prominent religious persons such as Martin Luther, began questioning the current catholic institutions. Indeed, the Rennaissance was the uprooting of the old society of the Medieval times, and the building of a new, modern society. Art would never be the same. The Italians not only revived Classical art, but they improved it. They made it something they could call there own. This new art style would be the precursor for all Modern art forms.
