Which of the events listed in the readings relating to the Northern Renaissance do you think was most important? Explain.

How did Albrecht Durer's work reflect the influence of the Italian Renaissance?
Becasue he was the only artist who drew things as they really were and he drew living things. He was one of the only artists who drew animals such as his famous painting "yonug hare"
What was one way the Renaissance changed society?
Its art becasue artists started to draw and paint things and depicate them as they really were, such as the Mona Lisa who was painted exactly how she looked and it is known that the eyes follow you.
Why was the invention of the printing press so important?
Printing changed society by making information inexpensive and available enough for society at large. Greater availability of books led to a greater quest for knowledge and literacy. Published maps and charts led to great discoveries in a variety of fields. People began to question political structures and religious practices.
