3.  Renaissance Humanism, a new philosophy, changed the way people viewed the world. Humanism is a "philosophy or world view that focuses on human values and concerns, attaching prime importance to human rather than divine or supernatural matters" (Wikipedia). Specifically, Renaissance Humanism was a cultural movement characterized by a revival of classical, meaning ancient Greek and Roman, learning. Artists expressed Humanist ideas when then modeled their work on Greek and Roman prototypes and observed details in real life and then reproduced them in works of art.  Art of the Early Renaissance (1400-1500) generally shows tension between older medieval ideas and artistic conventions and newer Humanist ideas and artistic conventions.  During the High Renaissance (1500-1520), artists let go of the the medieval past and embraced completely Humanist ideas and the revival of classical art and architecture.  Mannerism emerged in the 1520s as a reaction against the aesthetics of the High Renaissance. Mannerist artists were not interested in the realism and intentionally distorted and stylized the human body and spatial relationships.  The term Northern Renaissance refers to the Renaissance in Northern Europe. Artists of the Northern Renaissance were interested pursued realism but not classicism.
