Answer:

Renaissance for the first time started in Italy in the 14th century and later spread throughout Europe and reached Northern Europe in the 16th century. The Northern Renaissance painters, humanist, and writers were inspired by the Italian Renaissance. The Northern Renaissance was different from the Southern Renaissance in different ways. The Paintings in the Northern region were more focused on the teachings of the Christianity, church, and landscape while Italian art was focused on Christianity along with mythologies (God and Goddesses) of Greek and Roman. Italians were in a search of new ideas to bring in their work in painting, science, literature, architecture so on.
