Late Gothic and Early Renaissance

Painters in Siena and Florence still worked on gold grounds with rich color and decorative line, the courtly manner known as International Gothic. Meanwhile Florence led a more realistic style, with weightier figures set in convincingly built space: the Early Renaissance, which artists in the Netherlands soon shared.
