periods in the history of art,with large numbers of outstanding masters to be found in many centers and in all the major fields painting,seulpture,and architecture.In Florence,inthe first half of the fifteenth century,there were great innovators in all these filds,whose work marked a beginning of a new era in the history of art.
These innovators included Masaccio in painting,Brunelleschi in architecture,and Donatello in sculpture.their new ideals and nethodswere systematized in the theoretical writings of their friend and fellow artist Leon BattistaAlberti.Theretofore,he had been an artisan,a craftsman.Now the attempt was made to include artists among the practitioners of the “liberal
arts,”which were regarded as being on a higher level than the “mechanical.”
These efforts bore fruit, and some of the great masters,for example,Titian and Michelangelo,by the force of their genius and personality, were able to achieve a measure of satatus andresoect rarely enjoyed by their predecessors. The idea of artistic genius became popular,Michelangelo was
called”divine’because of thegreatness of his creative powers. In the Renaissance,art and science were closely
connected.Both the artist and the scientist strove for the mastery of the physical word,and the art of painting profited by two fields of study that may be called
scientific:anatomy,whichmade possible a more accurate reoresentation of the human body,and mathematical
perspective.Perspective in painting is the rendering on a two-dimensional surface of the illusion of three
dimensions.Previous painters had achieved thissffect by
empirical means,but thediscovery of a mathematical method of attaining a three-dimensional impession is attributed to Brunelleschi in about 1420.Henceforth,the method could be
systematically studied and explained,and it became one of the chief instruments ofartists,especially painters,in their pursuit of reality.Some men were both artists and
scientists,notably Leonardo da Vinci an Piero della Fancesca.It is doubtful whether they would have understood our distinction
between art and science.
