The English Renaissance is generally considered to have spanned from the late 15th century to the early 17th century, roughly from the 1480s to the 1620s. This period coincides with the reigns of Henry VII and Elizabeth I, culminating in the flourishing of literature, art, and culture, particularly during the time of William Shakespeare. The Renaissance in England is characterized by a renewed interest in classical learning and humanism, significantly influencing English literature and drama.

The most important piece to emerge from France during the Renaissance period is arguably the painting "Mona Lisa" by Leonardo da Vinci, created in the early 16th century. While da Vinci was Italian, the painting became emblematic of the French Renaissance after it was acquired by King Francis I. Its innovative use of sfumato and the enigmatic expression of the subject reflect the period's artistic advancements and fascination with humanism. The "Mona Lisa" continues to be celebrated as a masterpiece and a symbol of Renaissance art.
Dante Alighieri's impact during the Renaissance was significant. His literary works, particularly "The Divine Comedy," played a key role in shaping the Italian language and literature. Additionally, his writings helped to establish a humanistic approach to literature and influenced other Renaissance thinkers and writers.
