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.
Northern Renaissance painters often focused on intricate detail, symbolism, and realism, using oil paints to achieve a heightened sense of texture and light. In contrast, Italian Renaissance artists emphasized classical themes, proportion, and perspective, often drawing inspiration from ancient Greek and Roman art. While Italian works celebrated humanism and idealized forms, Northern artists were more likely to explore everyday life and religious themes with a devotional approach. Additionally, Northern Renaissance art often featured more complex narratives and natural settings.
The Italian Renaissance began in Florence.
Early Northern Renaissance paintings were characterized by a greater emphasis on detailed realism, intricate textures, and the use of oil paints, allowing for rich color and fine detail. In contrast, Italian Renaissance art focused more on classical themes, idealized forms, and the use of fresco techniques, often drawing inspiration from ancient Greek and Roman art. Additionally, Northern artists often incorporated symbolism and religious themes with a more personal touch, while Italian artists emphasized perspective and human anatomy. These differences reflect the distinct cultural and artistic influences in Northern Europe and Italy during the Renaissance.

The art of the Italian and Northern Renaissance shared similar qualities, but also had its differences. As the Italian Renaissance focused more on a rebirth of classic Greco-Roman culture, the art of the time was based off of classical mythology and included famous classic philosophers. In Raphael's School of Athens, Aristotle and Plato are featured in the center of the school. On the contrary, the Northern Renaissance art was characterized by domestic interiors and portraits. Northern Renaissance artists, starting with Jan Van Eyck, began to use different mediums, such as oil paint, to create the art of the movement. The two different eras share a commonality in art through religious themes throughout the art. Christian religious stories and figures were the predominant artistic theme in both times.
