[ F.renai ance , OF. renai ance , renaiscence , renascent i a , new birth: see renascence .] I. n. A new birth; hence, the revival of anything which has long been in decay or desuetude. Specifically [ cap .], the movement of transition in Europe from the medieval to the modern world, and especially the time, spirit, and activity of the revival of cla ical arts and letters. The earliest traces and most characteristic development of this revival were in Italy, where Petrarch and the early humanists and artists of the fourteenth century may be regarded as its precursors. The movement was greatly stimulated by the influx of Byzantine scholars, who brought the literature of ancient Greece into Italy in the fifteenth century, especially after the taking of Constantinople by the Turks in 1453. The Italian Renai ance was at its height at the end of the fifteenth and in the early sixteenth century, as seen in the lives and works of such men as Lorenzo dei Medici, Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci, Raphael, Machi a vell i, Politian, Ariosto, Correggio, Titian, and Aldus Manutius. The Renai ance was aided everywhere by the spirit of discovery and exploration of the fifteenth century-the age which saw the invention of printing, the discovery of America, and the rounding of Africa. In Germany the Renai ance advanced about the same time with the Reformation (which commenced in 1517). In England the revival of learning was fostered by Erasmus, Colet, Grocyn, More, and their fellows, about 1500, and in France there was a brilliant artistic and literary development under Louis XII. (1498-1515) and Francis I. (1515-47). Also, in English form, renascence . I have ventured to give to the foreign word Renais sance-destined to become of more common use amongst us as the movement which it denotes comes, as it will come, increasingly to interest us-an English form [ Re nascence).

[ cap .] Of or pertaining to the Renai ance; in the style of the Renai ance. -Renai ance architecture, the style of building and decoration which succeeded the medieval, and was based upon study and emulation of the outward forms and ornaments of Roman art, though with imperfect understanding of their principles. This style had its origin in Italy in the first half of the fifteenth century, and afterward spread over Europe. Its main characteristic is an attempted return to the cla ical forms which had been the forerunners of the Byzantine and the medieval. The Florentine Brunelleschi (died about 1446) was one of the first masters of the style, having prepared himself by earnest study of the remains of the monuments of ancient Rome. From Florence the style was introduced into Rome, where the works of Bramante (died 1514) are among its finest examples, the chief of these being the palace of the Chancellery, the foundations of St. Peter's, part of the Vatican, and the small church of San Pietro in Montorio. One of the greatest achievements of the Renai ance is the dome of St. Peter's, the work of Michelangelo; but this must yield in grandeur of conception to the earlier Florentine dome of Brunelleschi. After Michelangelo the style declined rapidly. Another chief Renai ance school arose in Venice, where in the majority of the buildings of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries predominance is given to external decoration. From this school sprung Palladio (1518-1580), whose distinctive style of architecture received the name of Palladian . Renai ance architecture was introduced into France by Lombardic and Florentine architects at the beginning of the sixteenth century, and flourished there during that century, but especially in the first half, under Louis XII. and Francis I. 5074 Renai ance Architecture.- French Renai ance tomb of Loys de Brézé (died 1531), Grand Seneschal of Normandy, etc., in the cathedral of Rouen; erected by his wife, Diane de Poitiers, and attributed to Jean Goujon and Jean Cousin. In England the Renai ance style was introduced later than in France, and it is represented there by the works of Inigo Jones, Sir Christopher Wren, and their contemporaries-St. Paul's, London, being a grand example by Wren. While all Renai ance architecture is far inferior to medieval building of the best time, it represents a distinct advance over the debased and over-elaborated forms of the medieval decadence. For an Italian example, see cut under Italian; see also cuts under loggia and Palla dian-Renai ance braid-work, a kind of needlework similar in its make to needle-point lace, but of much stouter material, as fine braid. - Renai ance lace. Same as Renai ance braid-work. Renai ance painting, next to architecture the chief art of the Renai ance, had by far its most important and characteristic development in Italy, where, based upon the art of the Byzantine painters of the middle ages, a number of important art centers or schools arose, differing from one another in their ideals and methods, but all distinctively Italian. The central one of these schools was that of Florence, which took the lead under the impulse and example of the great artist Giotto in the early part of the fourteenth century. Among the greatest of those after Giotto, whose genius influenced the development of the art, were Fra Angelico (Fra Giovanni da Fiesole), Masolino, Masaccio, Filippo Lippi, Sandro Bott i cell i, Filippino Lippi, and Leonardo da Vinci. The chief glory of Renai ance painting is that it advanced that art beyond any point that it had attained before, or has since reached. For other schools of Renai ance painting, see Bolognese, Roman, Sienese, Um brian, Venetian; and see Italian painting, under Italian. - Renai ance sculpture, the sculpture of the Renai ance, characterized primarily by seeking its models and Renai ance Sculpture. The "David" of Michelangelo, in the Accademia, Florence, Italy. renascence inspiration in the works of Roman antiquity, instead of in contemporary life, like medieval sculpture. As an adjunct to architecture, this sculpture reached its highest excellence in Italy and in France. Eminent names are those of Niccola Pisano, Donatello, Ghiberti, Luca dell a Robbia, Sansovino, Sangallo, and Michelangelo (1475-1564), one of the half-dozen names that rank as greatest in the world's art-history. See cut of Benvenuto Cell in i's "Perse us and Medusa," under Perseus, and see, under quadra, another example by Luca dell a Robbia. Renai ance style, properly the style of art and decoration (see Renai ance architecture) which prevailed in Italy during the fifteenth century and later, and the styles founded upon these which were in vogue in northern Europe at a date somewhat later as in France from about 1520 to 1560. By extension the phrase is made to cover all the revived cla ic styles of the last four centuries, including the above, and to embrace everything which shows a strong cla ic influence. This use is generally avoided by French writers, who speak of the styles fol. lowing the religious wars in France as the styles of Henry IV., Louis XIII., etc., excluding these from the Renai ance style proper; but English writers commonly include the whole period from 1400 to the French Revolution or the end of the eighteenth century, and divide it into various epochs or subordinate styles, according to the writer's fancy.
