The renaissance was a time when art and culture thrived in Europe
To make art look more realistic.
One of the distinguishing characteristics of early Renaissance art is that they used naturalism. The subjects of the art are put in natural and realistic poses.
The chief characteristics to Renaissance art compared to the Middle Ages art was that Middle Age Art was very vague and never used perspective, as well as there were not a whole lot of emotions and expressions used in the Middle Age art. on the other hand, Renaissance art used a lot of perspective and had the people in the art more natural and they used more emotions in the pictures.
Most characteristics were affected by the geography. Since they were in Northern area of Europe, the emphasis on color was different than Italian Renaissance, as opposed to mild climate and vivid view in Italy. Many Northern Renaissance works really weren't affected by Italian's view.
