There were many great artists during the Renaissance <文艺复兴>. Perhaps the most fa
mous are Leonardo da Vinci and Michelangelo. Other artists, however, also had great influence both during Renaissance times and later.
Giotto di Bondone <1267- 1337>

Jan van Eyck <1390-1441>
Jan van Eyck’s early influences came from his brother Hubert. In fact, Jan would sometimes finish his brother’s works. The Ghent Altarpiece is an example of Jan finishing what Hubert started. Jan van Eyck perfected the techniques of oil painting. He is often known as "the father of oil painting" becau of all the new techniques and advances he made in oil painting.
Masaccio <1401-1428>
Masaccio was a famous painter of the Italian Renaissance. He lived a very short life and only a few of his paintings exist, but they were so different from the style of other artists around him that they helped other painters to e things in a new way. Masaccio is often called "the father of Renaissance painting". He introduced the painting of the lifelike figures <人物> that had not been done before in the Middle Ages.
