Unlike Italian Renaissance, the art did not focus on recapturing Greek and Roman art, but rather the change in religious reform. The artists were greatly inspired by the Reformation, which questioned the weakened power of the Catholic Church. Also, the artists payed very close attention to small detail.

Leonardo's painting depicts Christ's baptism by John the Baptist. Here the painting shows the differences between the artistic styles during the Medieval and Italian Renaissance by the

details shown. Leonardo shows his attention to detail through the

anatomy of Christ's and

John's bodies.

The Last Supper

da Vinci's take on the last supper, which showed the Biblical prominence in Italian artwork. Although both these paintings are religious/ Biblical scenes, the more realistic style of Leonardo's painting shows the humanism represented during the Italian Renaisance.
