The document summarizes how art changed from the Renaissance to Romanticism era. During the Renaissance, art focused on classicism and featured prominent artists like Da Vinci. Architecture used Greek pillars and domes. Art became more free from religion. Music progressed with balanced rhythm. Great literature works emerged. The Baroque era saw grand, dark architecture and contrast in painting. Music used basso continuo and polyphony. Rococo featured detailed, bright art. Romanticism allowed emotion in art, with architecture focusing on nature and primitive styles. Music used free form and program music. Literature explored social issues and characters' inner lives.
