How did the Renaissance affect architecture, painting, and sculpture?
Before the Renaissance, art was very one dimensional. It was usually dark, and showed too much devotion to god. During the Renaissance, art had a much bigger focus. God and Religion were still strongly portrayed, but with more humanism. Art also consisted of increased realism, light and shadowing were studied. Perspective and proportions were enhanced. Color and and divinity was also added. Roman architecture was re-adopted. Buildings were built with more designs and beauty, along with complexity. Sculpting became superior.
