Northern Europe became more rebellious about the church's authority and art became secular. Northern Renaissance painters painted subjects of daily life. They painted common people like peasants doing everyday things. They usually focused on the lives of peasants unlike Italian Renaissance painters.

during the Italian renaissance the art consisted of a lot of balance, symmetry, and perspective. Known for- the northern renaissance focused more on the smaller details and more in mathematics and science but for the Italian renaissance they were known for the understanding of the human anatomy.
