There was a great cultural movement roughly between 14th and 17th centuries called Renaissance. It started in Florence, Italy, and later spread throughout Europe. Renaissance was a movement about learning based on classical sources, developing linear perspective in painting, and a slow but wide range of educational redevelopment. This intellectual change has resulted in a view which looks at Renaissance as a bridge between the Middle Ages and the Modern era. Although Renaissance encompassed all forms social and political changes, it is best known for the development in the field of arts and the valuable contributions made by the multi-talented Leonardo da Vinci and Michelangelo who were inspiration behind the term "Renaissance man".

Renaissance was concerned about the characteristics like humanism Cheap Womens Vans Old Skool , art, science, religion, and self-awareness.

One of the remarkable features of Renaissance art was that it developed a highly realistic linear perspective. This development of perspective was part of a wider trend directed towards realism in the arts. To that end, artists also developed innovative techniques, with the study of light Cheap Mens Vans Old Skool , shadow, and, even human anatomy, for which Leonardo da Vinci is famous. Behind these alterations in artistic method, was renewed desire to reveal the beauty of Nature, and to unveil the ultimate truth of aesthetics Cheap Vans Old Skool , with the works of Michelangelo, Leonardo and Raphael which represented artistic pinnacles that were going to be imitated by other artists. Sandro Botticelli, working in Florence for the Medici, Donatello, who was also a Florentine and Titan in Venice were some of the other notable artists.

At the same time, another specifically vibrant artistic culture developed Wholesale Vans Old Skool Online , in the Netherlands, the work of Hugo van der Goes and Jan van Eyck which influenced the development of painting in Italy, both technically with the entry of oil paint and canvas and stylistically in terms of naturalism in depiction. Later on, the work of Pieter Brueghel the Elder inspired the artists to represent themes of everyday life.

Filippo Brunelleschi was the foremost in the field of architecture, in studying the remains of classical ancient structures and with reinvented knowledge from the 1st-century writer Vitruvius and the fully growing discipline of mathematics, formulated the Renaissance style which improved and emulated classical forms. The dome of Florence Cathedral of Brunelleschi was the major feat of engineering. The church of St. Andrew built by Alberti in Mantua is claimed to be the first building to demonstrate this. The most distinguished architectural work of the High Renasissance was the rebuilding of St. Peter's Basilica Wholesale Vans Old Skool China , which was a result of combined skills of Donato Bramante, Rapahel, Michelangelo, Mederno and Sangallo.

RIO DE JANEIRO - After just one match each, Robin van Persie and Lionel Messi have already equaled their goal tallies from their previous two World Cups combined.

Two of football's biggest stars are finally shining where it matters most.

While it has taken Van Persie and Messi three tournaments to find their feet Wholesale Kids Vans Old Skool , other strikers seem to thrive on the pressure-cooker atmosphere of the World Cup from day one.

Thomas Mueller, joint tournament top scorer with five in South Africa four years ago, grabbed a hat trick Monday as Germany hammered Portugal 4-0.

And with the weight of the football-loving host nation resting on his slender shoulders, 22-year-old Neymar slotted two goals on his World Cup debut as Brazil beat Croatia 3-1 in the tournament opener. Neymar failed to score against Mexico Tuesday thanks to amazing goalkeeping Guillermo Ochoa.

But the pressure that some players thrive on seems to weigh others down. Cristiano Ronaldo - constantly paired against Messi in the debate over the world's best player - continued his miserable World Cup form. His only goal in South Africa was in Portugal's 7-0 rout of Democratic People's republic of Korea, and he and his team were shut out in their first game in Brazil.

For Messi, getting his name on the score sheet was an improvement from four years ago Wholesale Womens Vans Old Skool , when he left South Africa without a goal. The Argentine wizard's only previous World Cup goal came in Germany in 2006.

If Van Persie's relative failure in his first two World Cups - he managed just one goal in the Dutch charge to the 2010 final and only one in Germany four years earlier - was weighing on his mind, it didn't show in Salvador on Friday, where he grabbed two goals in his team's 5-1 demolition of world champion Spain.

""He's so mature that I don't really think he's thinking about that a lot,"" Dutch midfielder Nigel de Jong said of Van Persie's previous World Cup flops. ""I don't think he looks at the statistics, especially from the last couple of tournaments.""

Messi picked up the ball in the 65th minute against Bosnia at the Maracana on Sunday, exchanged a 1-2 with Gonzalo Higuain Wholesale Mens Vans Old Skool , weaved his way past defenders and curled a left-footed shot in off the base of the post.

Van Persie ran onto a 40-yard pass from Daley Blind, glanced up, saw Iker Casillas off his line and dived full length to send a looping header over the Spain goalie.

""Considering the circumstances, it must be the goal of my career,"" the Manchester United striker said.

The release of tension was palpable for both players.

Van Persie sprinted along the touch line to exchange a high five with coach Louis van Gaal; Messi tugged on his shirt, ran to the edge of the pitch and pumped his fist.

""I wanted to release all the energy from other times when things didn't go rig.
