Answer :

B. Artists and writers began to develop styles never used before and stopped expressing religious ideas in art. Although all 4 have a ring of truth to them, B is the most factual. 

The correct answer is C) Artists and writers created extraordinary art and literature that combined new and traditional subjects with classical styles and new ideas.

The statement that best summarizes the significance of the Renaissance is "Artists and writers created extraordinary art and literature that combined new and traditional subjects with classical styles and new ideas."

After dark periods during the Middle Ages, the Renaissance represented a renovated moment to give light to new ideas in arts, literature, and architecture. The Renaissance started in Italy and then spread to other parts of Europe such as France and Germany. The Renaissance saw the extraordinary work of artists such as Michelangelo, Donatello, Leonardo Da Vinci, Raphael, and Botticelli.
