Renaissance architecture is the European architecture of the period between the early 14th and early 17th centuries in different regions, demonstrating a conscious revival and development of certain elements of ancient Greek and Roman thought and material culture. Stylistically, Renaissance architecture followed Gothic architecture and was succeeded by Baroque architecture. Developed first in Florence, with Filippo Brunelleschi as one of its innovators, the Renaissance style quickly spread to other Italian cities. The style was carried to France, Germany, England, Russia and other parts of Europe at different dates and with varying degrees of impact.

Renaissance style places emphasis on symmetry, proportion, geometry and the regularity of parts as they are demonstrated in the architecture of classical antiquity and in particular ancient Roman architecture, of which many examples remained. Orderly arrangements of columns, pilasters and lintels, as well as the use of semicircular arches, hemispherical domes, niches and aedicules replaced the more complex proportional systems and irregular profiles of medieval buildings.

Here is your answer...

Renaissance :

When renaissance, humanism and reformation were sweeping across Europe, India too was undergoing profound cultural changes.

It was the time of the rule of the mughals and the vijayanagara and bahmani kings.

It was also a period of refined styles of painting as can be seen in the mughal miniature paintings and wall paintings of vijayanagara.

During this period of ambitious public architecture, kings built massive temples, mosques,forts, palaces etc.

The artists learned their art from diverse sources.

The Indian painters, for example, learnt much from the Persian painters and also form the artists of the renaissance, copies of whose paintings reached India.

In addition, they built upon the tradition of painting palm leaf manuscripts using bright colors as practiced by the old Indian painters.

Similarly in architecture we see a mixture of styles in both vijayanagara and in the mughal buildings.
