With a rich cultural past and affluent residents who could afford to encourage aspiring artists, Florence, Italy, is often credited with sparking the Renaissance. The movement was well-backed by members of the Medici family, who controlled Florence for over 60 years.

Originally, members of the family gained wealth and influence through banking. Over time, they had established themselves as prominent financiers and merchants in the city. They then used their vast wealth to support the arts by commissioning works.

Prominent Italian authors, painters, statesmen, and others declared they were taking part in a revolution in art and thought that would be very different from what they had known during the Dark Ages. Initially, the movement spread to neighboring city-states in Italy, including Rome, Bologna, Venice, Milan, and Ferrara.

Then, in the fifteenth century, ideas from the Renaissance moved from Italy to France and eventually to other parts of western and northern Europe. Even while the Renaissance came to other European nations later than it did Italy, its effects were nonetheless revolutionary.
