Abstract
During the Renaissance period, the Medici family has played a fundamental role in encouraging the spread of humanism ideas. As humanist believed, spirit of human is lost during the Middle Ages prior to the Renaissance period due to feudal system. The introduction of such humanism idea is impactful towards the society; however, it is lacking in direct support that promotes such idea. In Florence, the Medici family made huge contributions to allowing the growth of humanism to be shown in works of art that challenges traditional thinking. During the stage where financial power is mostly held by kings and political leaders, the success of the Medici in the Medici bank allows them to support artists who are in need for support. By stabilizing peace in Florence, it provided chances for artists under Medici support to receive a positive environment for art creation. The peaceful Florence also brought in more artists from other places to investigate into the rising humanism possibilities; hence, Florence under Medici control became an important art center.
