Overview

In fifteenth-century Florence and Flanders, painters were using an arsenal of new techniques - including perspective, anatomy, and the accurate treatment of light and shade - to present traditional religious subjects with an unprecedented immediacy and emotional power. Their art was the product of a shared Christian culture, and their patrons included not only nobles and churchmen but also the middle classes of these thriving commercial centers.
