cinquecento The renaissance.
Byzantine, Italian, and French
There wasn't a specific person who brought Italian architecture the Britain. The first forms of Italian architecture ever present in Britain would have been the Roman architecture brought over by the Romans themselves. Following the Norman conquest of 1066, the Norman-French fabricated a style of architecture for their own use, and one that was based on Ancient Roman architectural forms. This style was of course called Romanesque Architecture. During the Victorian Era, England formulated and built in a style called Italianate Architecture, which was a compilation of Ancient Roman, Italian Renaissance, and other Italian architectural styles. Lastly, in the same era, Britain also adopted the European architectural form of Palladian Architecture/Palladianism, an Italian architectural system created by and named after the world famous Italian architect Andrea Palladio, and created by a combination of Ancient Roman, Italian Renaissance, and his own innovative and inventive architectural uses. The English architects Indigo Jones and John Nash were two of the best known importers and proponents of Italian architectural forms and styles throughout Britain.
Usually, Italian Villas are constructed out of Italianate styles. This type of building structure was developed prominently for the Italian Villas. This was first developed and seen by home and estate buyers in the early 1830's.
Roman art influenced English art through the way it influenced Western art: via the influence of Italian Renaissance art which used classical (Roman and Greek) canons. In painting the British art academies trained their students in the canons of the Italian Renaissance until the movement of the Pre-Raphaelites broke away from it in the 19th century. In architecture, there was an influence by the Italian Renaissance, particularly by the Italian architect Antonio Palladio who based his work on the Roman architecture textbook by Vitruvius. The Palladian style was very popular in Britain in the mid-17th century where the simplicity of the (Roman) classical style was preferred to the flamboyant Baroque style. It developed into the Neo-Palladian style. It the second half of the 19th century it was rivalled by the Gothic style, but continued to be popular until the early 20th century. Neoclassicism was also another popular style. It was a revival of Renaissance style in architecture and sculpture in opposition to the Baroque. It begun in the 18th century and is still used today. Neoclassicism also influenced painting, print-making and literature. In 18th century Britain there was the Augustan Literature which was a Neoclassical style.
Renaissance architecture was a dominant style between the 15th and 16th centuries. The emphasis on symmetry and proportion marked a return to classical Roman architecture it followed the Gothic architectural period (late medieval). which had moved away from Romanesque architecture. Instead favoring the pointed arch and buttresses favored in ecclesiastical buildings.
Il Rinascimento = rebirth, or the Renaissance.
Il Renascimento italiano is an Italian equivalent of the English phrase "the Italian Renaissance." The masculine singular phrase most famously represents achievements in architecture, literature, music, painting, philosophy, poetry, science, and sculpture whose realization peaked throughout Italy, but especially in the peninsular north, during the sixteenth century. The pronunciation will be "eel rey-NA-shee-MEN-to EE-ta-LYA-no" in Italian.
"Literature" in English is letteratura in Italian.
