Why should we accept Renaissance Style?

Ever since the Renaissance period we were able to discover and improve varieties of styles and techniques. Such examples are realistic style, gothic style, abstract style and many more other styles. Discovering these styles artists were able use these to create extraordinary paintings that turn into masterpieces, their greatest works of art of all time.

It also gives distinctive features to the artist’s painting and to the artist himself. Especially when you amaze people with your style and how you express yourself in painting. Like the painting of Mona Lisa, its distinctive style is the chiaroscuro. The way the shadow gives depth to the painting as if it is 3D. And the way it gives emphasis to the subject matter. Another great example is "St. John the Baptist".




ther styles such as "elongation", a type of style that figures are elongated more than they are in reality. One of the examples is "Madonna with a Long Neck by Parmigianino. The artist made the lady's neck in the painting longer to represent the gracefulness like the swan. And then the baby in arms is much bigger than a normal baby's size.


Each style is very unique that one is keen to perfect it and make it as his own. Many will admire and try to imitate it. It might offend some artists but on the bright side the art style will be carried on.
