The Renaissance saw the emergence of several new art styles, most notably the use of linear perspective, which created a sense of depth and realism in painting. Artists like Leonardo da vinci and Michelangelo emphasized human anatomy and emotion, leading to more lifelike representations. Additionally, the period fostered the growth of oil painting, allowing for richer colors and more detailed textures. This era also marked a shift towards secular themes in art, alongside traditional religious subjects, reflecting the changing attitudes of society.
During the Renaissance, a new group of art patrons emerged known as the wealthy merchant class, particularly in city-states like Florence. This group included individuals such as the Medici family, who used their wealth to commission artworks and support artists, thereby fostering cultural and artistic development. Unlike the previous reliance on the church for patronage, these merchants prioritized humanism and individual expression in art, significantly influencing the direction of Renaissance art.

Abstract Expressionism, which gained prominence in the mid-20th century, focuses on spontaneous, automatic, or subconscious creation, emphasizing the artist's emotional experience and individuality.
