The printing technology gave a right path towards the cultural development. People in Europe started to built their houses, churches with good architecture. The literacy of people, increased day by day. This renaissance also had an effect on the general society. Many people showed interest in politics. People started to look at other towns and places and began to explore. Many people started their own businesses in other towns and began to export and import the commodities.
Due to this relocation and migration culture began to spread all over the nation. The people learned new culture and started to practice and this made a dramatic change in Humanism. Humanism is not a philosophy but it is the method of learning. It deals with the Grammar, poetry and Ethics. This gave a new birth to Education system.
The renaissance in Art was influenced by Giotto De Bondone in 14th century. He treated the painting from window into space and made the painting more realistic and natural. From this change the painters started to study about the shading, studied about light. The city that is celebrated for the Renaissance in painting is Florence in Italy.
Many themes were created based on the church and artists later started to use oil paintings and canvas.
