Legend:
It was at the commencement of the 15th century, that the Renaissance style began to make its appearance in Italy, and the period till about 1500 may be called the period of Early Renaissance, in contra- distinction of High Renaissance which lasted till the middle of the 16th century. Renaissance is a new adaptation, not a servile imitation, but a free treatment of antique forms; the plainest evidence of this is given by the ornament, of which this style makes a richer and ampler use than any other. This applies more particularly to the motives we meet with; and here we observe above all the vegetable ornament, which in Early Renaissance generally covers the ground only moderately. We find almost everywhere delicate, beautifully curved branches in a symmetrical or at least regular arrangement, in which the antique acanthus-leaf acts the principal part, although, not without the most various transformations. Also vine, laurel, ivy etc. are frequently employed, partly copying nature directly, partly idealized. But this foliage with its branches and fruit is still enlivened by a rich variation of animals, fantastical beings, human figures as well as symbolical subjects, arms, masks, emblems, vases, candela- bras etc. Most cultivated is the combination of human figures and animals with vegetable elements (Fig. 3). Finally a not less important part of the decoration are coats of arms and escutcheons , the latter usually as so-called horse-front-shields (Fig. 6 and 9) in the period of Early Renaissance, later on as cartouches. All we mentioned hitherto is found in facade-painting, i. e. in those paintings with which the fronts of single houses, for want of plastic adornment, were entirely faced, showing either ornaments or historical representations. The colours are bright and harmoniously composed, so that a gorgeous impression results from such architecture often not only coloured but really painted. From a later period, when the many-figured historical representations almost wholly superseded the ornament, one often finds fronts painted in bronze-colour or in grisaille. Fig. 1-7. From the front of a house in Genoa (Via San Matteo, No. 10)  Front of the court of 'Casa Taverna' at Milan 9-11. "     of Palazzo Piccolomini at Pienza.
