The Renaissance style takes its name from the French "renaiisance" which means rebirth. It describes the arts in Italy from the early 14th to the mid-16th centuries, but it is also more loosely applied to other European countries of that era. The art style was based on renewed study of the art of antiquity and of nature. In textile, the Italian designs predominate and became universal models. n the last third of the 16th century, fabrics destined for decoration and those destined for clothing are clearly differentiated. Large decorative rapports evolve for upholsteries, while new lighter fabrics appear with smaller motifs for new suits.
