Late Renaissance art

Late Renaissance art, roughly from the late 15th to early 16th century, is characterized by a focus onbalance, harmony, and realism achieved through advanced techniques like perspective and detailed anatomy. Artists like Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo, and Titian pushed boundaries, creating more dynamic compositions and expressive figures. This period emphasizes idealized beauty, complex ideas, and emotional depth, transitioning from the earlier Renaissance's exploration of humanism to more elaborate and sophisticated artistic expression. It laid the groundwork for future styles such as Mannerism and Baroque.
