Brief Introduction
The Renaissance was the period that followed (brought Europe out of) the mid-ages. It was a time of renewed interest in things of this world. It happened approximately between 1300 and 1600. The Renaissance as a movement first started in Florence and then expanded to Venice, Rome and other Italian cities before it swept the rest parts of Europe.
