Abstract
This paper explores the lasting influence of Renaissance aesthetics on contemporary visual culture, focusing on how classical principles such as harmony, proportion, and naturalism continue to shape modern art movements. The study delves into the ways the Renaissance's re-emphasis on human dignity, secular themes, and groundbreaking techniques like linear perspective and anatomical accuracy established a foundational lexicon for subsequent artistic expression. It examines the integration of disciplines such as anatomy and optics during the Renaissance and how these innovations revolutionized the portrayal of the human body and space in visual art. Through a critical review of Renaissance techniques and their influence on later movements, the paper demonstrates how these principles resonate in the works of contemporary artists, emphasizing the enduring legacy of the Renaissance in modern artistic practice. The findings highlight the continued relevance of Renaissance humanism in shaping artistic methodologies and visual representations in the 21st century.
