Renaissance painting is considered more realistic than medieval painting due to its emphasis on naturalism, perspective, and human anatomy. Artists during the Renaissance studied the human form and used techniques like linear perspective to create depth, making their works more lifelike. In contrast, medieval art often focused on religious themes with a flatter, more stylized approach that prioritized symbolism over realism. This shift reflected broader changes in cultural values, with a greater interest in individualism and the natural world during the Renaissance.
