Of course. The Renaissance period in Europe is generally considered to have been between the 14th and 17th centuries, during which a cultural and intellectual movement arose that is often linked to a renewed interest in education, literature, art, and science. Some of the key features of the Renaissance period include the rediscovery of classical antiquity and the emergence of a secular worldview. Additionally, the political and economic dynamics of the period led to unprecedented social mobility and wealth that allowed for new forms of patronage and public patronage of the arts.
