What is humanism? How does an artist demonstrate this idea while conveying Christian subject matter?
These concepts, which may not seem as though they would be in sync, collaborate very well on canvas and in stone in the 15th and 16th century Italian Renaissance.

Some ideas to consider: What choices has the artist made that push forth the ideas of humanism?

How might a re-birth of Ancient Greek ideas have something to do with this shift in art?
As always, utilize research and cite your sources.
