Classical to Renaissance: The Foundations of Western Art (3 in 1)

This book contains these titles, all in one bundle:

- Neo-Classicism: Neo-Classicism was an art movement that emerged in the mid-18th century as a response to the excesses and ornate style of the Baroque and Rococo periods. It sought to return to the classical ideals of Ancient Greece and Rome, emphasizing simplicity, balance, and harmony. This revival was deeply rooted in a growing interest in the art and culture of antiquity, sparked by the discovery of ancient ruins like Pompeii and Herculaneum. These excavations revealed a wealth of classical art and architecture that greatly influenced artists and intellectuals of the time.

- The Renaissance: The Renaissance, meaning "rebirth" in French, marked a profound transformation in art, culture, and thought that began in Italy during the 14th century and spread across Europe over the following centuries. It is often regarded as the bridge between the Middle Ages and the Modern Era, a time when the classical ideas of ancient Greece and Rome were rediscovered and became central to European culture. The Renaissance was not merely an artistic movement; it was a period of intellectual, scientific, and cultural awakening, laying the foundation for many aspects of the modern world.

- The Art of the Italian Renaissance: At the heart of the Renaissance was the idea of humanism, a philosophical outlook that emphasized the potential for human achievement and sought to celebrate the individual. Humanist scholars and artists believed that by studying the classical works of antiquity, they could unlock new possibilities for human creativity and intellect. This perspective led to a flourishing of art that depicted human beings not just as divine figures but as real, living individuals with emotion, personality, and complexity.
