Detailed explanation-1: -During the Renaissance, from roughly the 14th to 16th century, there were many advances in science, math, philosophy, and art. One of the most monumental advances in art was the development of linear perspective. Linear perspective uses principles of math to realistically portray space and depth in art.
Detailed explanation-2: -The development and growth of the printing press was perhaps the most important technical achievement of the Renaissance. Johannes Gutenberg developed it in 1440, although the technology was used in China centuries earlier.
Detailed explanation-3: -Linear perspective was important because it gave artists the tools to create a convincing illusion of three-dimensional space on a flat surface. If Renaissance art strove to “bring the divine down to earth, ‘’ linear perspective made it possible to create a fully rational space for figures to inhabit.
