• The northern European tradition
of Gothic Art was greatly
affected by the technical and
philosophical advancements of
the Renaissance in Italy.
– Gothic Art is the style of art
produced in Northern Europe from
the middle ages up until the
beginning of the Renaissance.
– Typically rooted in religious
devotion, it is especially known for
the distinctive arched design of its
churches, its stained glass, and its
illuminated manuscripts.
• Northern Renaissance artists were less concerned
with studies of anatomy and linear perspective.
– They were masters of technique, and their
works are marvels of exquisite detail.
• As Italy moved into the High Renaissance, the
north retained a distinct Gothic influence.
• Yet masters like Albrecht Dürer, Hieronymus
Bosch, Pieter Bruegel and Hans Holbein were
the equal of the greatest artists of the south.
• In the 16th century, as in the south, the
Northern Renaissance eventually gave way to
highly stylized Mannerist art.
– Mannerist art: theatrical and overly stylized work.
– Mannerist Art is characterized by a complex
composition, with muscular and elongated figures
in complex poses.
Mannerist
Art:
Sir Thomas More 1478 –1535

churches.

and worldliness of the Catholic Church.

King Henry VIII
• The Protestant Reformation began
with criticism of the Catholic Church
by priests and other religious
thinkers.
• In England, the Reformation began
with the king.
• Henry VIII became king of England in
1509 at the age of 17.
• As a young king, he was a devout
Catholic who wrote angry protests
against the "venomous" ideas of
Luther.
• Henry's actions won him the title
"Defender of the Faith".
King Henry VIII
• By 1525, Henry's wife, Catherine
of Aragon, had borne only one
child, a girl named Mary.
– Henry wanted a male heir.
– It was thought that a female
monarch could weaken England
politically, and he believed that
Catherine would produce no male
heir.
• Henry decided to have the
marriage annulled, or declared
invalid based on church laws, so
that he could marry again.
The King’s Great Matter
• The pope offered Henry several solutions to
his problem but would not agree to the
annulment because Catherine and her
nephew, Holy Roman Emperor Charles V,
opposed to it.
– The dilemma became known as the "king's great
matter".
• While Henry argued with the pope over his
annulment, he fell in love with Anne Boleyn.
– Henry soon took matters into his own hands.
Pope Leo X
• Pope Leo X, born Giovanni
di Lorenzo de' Medici, was
Pope from 9 March 1513
to his death in 1521.
• The second son of Lorenzo
the Magnificent
Henry becomes head of the Church
• Henry summoned Parliament, known
as the Reformation Parliament, and
declared that England no longer
considered itself under the authority
of the Pope.
• Instead, Henry himself became the
head of the Church of England.
• He changed the rituals of the church
very little, but Henry closed Catholic
monasteries and convents and
distributed much of the land to
nobles.
• This helped build more public support
for the split from the church.
The Act of Supremacy
• In 1533, Anne Boleyn and Henry
VIII were secretly married.
• Later that year, after Parliament
had declared Henry's marriage
to Catherine null and void, Anne
gave birth to a girl, Elizabeth.
• The next year, Parliament
passed the Act of Supremacy,
which required subjects to take
an oath declaring Henry VIII to
be "Supreme Head of the
Church of England".
– The break with Rome was
complete.
ESSENTIAL QUESTIONS:
1. What led to Henry VIII's break with the
Catholic Church?
2. Based on the response to Henry VIII's break
with Rome, what was likely to be the future
relationship between the church and
England? Explain your answer
3. Do you believe Henry was in the right?
Why/Why not?
