The Northern Renaissance Chapter 17 Section 2

The Northern Renaissance began in the prosperous cities of Flanders. Many painters focused on the common people, creating scenes of everyday life. Many writers also focused on the common people. From Flanders, ideas spread to Spain, France, and England.

Renaissance Art in Northern Europe Should not be considered an appendage to Italian art. But, Italian influence was strong. –Painting in OIL, developed in Flanders, was widely adopted in Italy. The differences between the two cultures: –Italy  change was inspired by humanism with its emphasis on the revival of the values of classical antiquity. –No. Europe  change was driven by religious reform, the return to Christian values, and the revolt against the authority of the Church. More princes & kings were patrons of artists.

Characteristics of Northern Renaissance Art Tendency toward realism & naturalism [less emphasis on the “classical ideal”]. Interest in landscapes. More emphasis on middle-class and peasant life. Details of domestic interiors. Great skill in portraiture.

Jan van Eyck (1395 – 1441) More courtly and aristocratic work. –Court painter to the Duke of Burgundy, Philip the Good.  The Virgin and Chancellor Rolin, 1435.

Giovanni Arnolfini and His Wife (Wedding Portrait) Jan Van Eyck 1434

The detail!!

Albrecht Dürer ( ) A scholar as well as an artist. Also a scientist –Wrote books on geometry, fortifications, and human proportions.  Self-Portrait at 26, 1498.

Hieronymus Bosch ( ) A pessimistic view of human nature. Had a wild and lurid imagination. –Fanciful monsters & apparitions. Untouched by the values of the Italian perspective. –His figures are flat. –Perspective is ignored. More a landscape painter than a portraitist.

Hieronymus Bosch The Garden of Earthy Delights 1500

Pieter Bruegel the Elder ( ) Was deeply concerned with human vice and follies. A master of landscapes; not a portraitist. –People in his works often have round, blank, heavy faces. –They are expressionless, mindless, and sometimes malicious. –They are types, rather than individuals. –Their purpose is to convey a message.

Bruegel’s, Tower of Babel, 1563

El Greco Christ in Agony on the Cross 1600s

Hans Holbein, the Younger ( ) One of the great German artists who did most of his work in England. –Erasmus Writing, 1523  Henry VIII was his patron from Great portraitist noted for: –Objectivity & detachment. –Doesn’t conceal the weaknesses of his subjects.

Artist to the Tudors Henry VIII (left), 1540 and the future Edward VI (above), 1543.

The Elizabethan Age Queen Elizabeth reigned in England from 1558 to 1603 … more on her later.

In Gargantua and Pantagruel, two giants on a comic adventure offer opinions on religion and education. In Utopia, he described an ideal society where all are educated and people live in harmony. The book gave us the word utopian. Francois Rabelais was a French humanist who used comedy. Sir Thomas More was an English humanist who pushed for social reforms.

The towering figure of northern Renaissance literature was the English playwright and poet William Shakespeare. Between 1590 and 1613, he wrote 37 plays which are still performed today, including: Romeo and Juliet Hamlet A Midsummer Night’s Dream

Shakespeare explored Renaissance ideals such as the complexity of the individual. Well-known quotes from Shakespeare include “Neither a borrower nor a lender be” and “A rose by any other name would smell as sweet.” He used common language understood by all and added 1,700 words to the English language.

In 1455 Johann Gutenberg printed a complete edition of the Bible using a printing press with movable type. The printing revolution transformed Europe. Printed books were far easier to produce than hand-copied books. More people had access to a broad range of learning. By 1500, the number of books in Europe had risen from a few thousand to between 15 and 20 million.
