The option that sets Renaissance artists Leonardo da Vinci and Michelangelo apart from medieval artists is their study of human anatomy. Renaissance artists were known for their emphasis on realism, perspective, and a deep understanding of the human body, which was a significant advancement from the more stylized and less anatomically accurate representations typical of medieval art.
