Question

Give two things that grew in Italy during the Renaissance

Answer 1

Though the Catholic Church remained a major patron of the arts during the Renaissance–from popes and other prelates to convents, monasteries, and other religious organizations–works of art were increasingly commissioned by civil government, courts, and wealthy individuals. Much of the art produced during the early Renaissance was commissioned by the wealthy merchant families of Florence, most notably the Medici Family From 1434 until 1492 when Lorenzo de’ Medici–known as “the Magnificent” for his strong leadership as well as his support of the arts–died, the powerful family presided over a golden age for the city of Florence. Pushed from power by a republican coalition in 1494, the Medici family spent years in exile but returned in 1512 to preside over another flowering of Florentine art, including the array of sculptures that now decorates the city’s Piazza Della Signoria.
