After the Plague... Europe experienced a new frame of mind. For the first time, life started moving away from the church. Art became more secular, and people starting commissioning paintings for their own personal collections.

There was a great fascination to reclaim the reality of painting and sculpture that had been lost during the middle ages. Artists studied the classics of ancient Greece to re-teach themselves how to make "beautiful" art again.
