The correct answer is C. Renaissance art had both religious and secular themes

Step-by-step explanation

Renaissance art is the art that emerged in Europe during the 15th century as paintings, sculptures and others, by the time there had been important developments in different areas such as science, philosophy, and literature. This type of art mixed the art of the Classical antiquity, that refers to the historical period of Ancient Greece and Ancient Rome, and the new developments guided by science, as well as new artistic techniques. Because of this, Renaissance art themes included myths and biblical scenes (Religious themes) but also, humanistic and Renaissance themes and techniques guided by the new discoveries and developments (Secular themes).
