In western art history, The art achievement in Renaissance is obvious to all. In many article that write about the art achievement of Renaissance has all concern to the economic and society factor influence the development of Renaissance .The development of merchandise make the arise of propertied class. Moreover, it changed the situation which see important to theology, despise the humanisms. But many article write very vague about the relationship between the Christianity and Renaissance. Is it mean that Christianity art exist in Renaissance period is just in appearance?The Christianity experienced the development in the west for thousand years with spirit that turn into, the Christianity was already deeply affect the western literature and art. The western art has established the traditional principle in art that regards the Christianity art spirit as the core. The economy transformation in Renaissance maked the comedown of the Christianity, At the same time it producing the flourish of the art and the rise of Humanism .But in the large quantity art work of the Renaissance, the work of the religious topic occupied the most part. What kind of relationship that Humanism and Christianity actually is ?How many relations does the flourish of the Renaissance art have with the sees of the Christianity actually with the achievement of bigness? Period and religious art in renew in literature whether just" superficially religious art"? After I researched the situation of the art work in the period of Renaissance, I considered that between the humanism and Christianity there is a closely contraction. The traditional of Christianity is not a resistance but motive for the development of Renaissance.Many misunderstanding and wrong judgments for the achievements of Renaissance come from the extreme comprehend to art of the Middle Ages .The Christianity created glorious succession in thought and art during thousand years' development. The Renaissance is what impossible to emergence without the series of effort from Middle Ages.The humanism thoughts and Christianity thoughts has consistency in the Renaissance period, even we can say that the humanism is the development which come from the Christianity thought. In the west society, the Christianity is a comprehension to faces to the social each hierarchical and religious culture, peaceful people's rank in ruling class to Christianity different from realize is. Speak from the history, Christianity is in the ruler center different from among the civilian the function that rises too is. Be the civilian along with the propertied class center of the newly arisen power is rising, the plebeian Christianity thought starts the Christianity thought that challenge the ruler. So we come in sight of the religious hot liver upsurge in period civilian in Renaissance, see at the same time, the religious art presented the different from basinet feature.The humanism did not negate the Christianity thoughts, it developed from the plebeian Christianity, and performance from the Christianity. Exactly because the Christianity has deeply influenced the western people and culture. The plebeian Christianity namely the humanism thought cans spreads quickly with development. To the art of Renaissance, the religious culture tradition that continued for a long time has take enough literature and physical basement. The religious art in Middle Ages also provided the experience for the artist of the Renaissance with the skill and the method for the material.So, is the base of the development of Renaissance. Without the develops to the positive factor in tradition culture, It's impossible to judge and correct the negative factor. Renaissance is the sublimate of Christianity culture in specific period.
