The style of painting, sculpture and decorative arts identified with the Renaissance (Perspective, Chiaroscuro, Fresco) emerged in Italy in the late 14th century.
Perspective - represent three-dimensional objects on a two-dimensional surfaces in a way that looks natural and realistic. Perspective can create an illusion of space and depth on a flat surface (e.x The School of Athens.)
Chiaroscuro - Refers to the use of light and shadow to create the illusion of light from a specific source shining on the figures and objects in the painting.
Fresco - Is a method of painting water-based pigments on freshly applied plaster, usually on wall surfaces. The colours, are set with the plaster to become a permanent part of the wall. (e.x The Creation of Adam)
