Protestant reformation began with Martin Luther voicing his problems with the Catholic Church.
Martin Luther was excommunicated in 1520 for identifying the problems of the Catholic Church.
This is the beginning of the Catholic Reformation.
The Catholic Church as a result loses a massive percentage of its flock.
1527, Rome, home of the Vatican, is invaded. This is a short time after Pop Julius the Second and Raphael's School of Athens.
Mannerism reflects the political and religious turmoil of the time.
Some say that Mannerism isn't really a thing, that it is just Renaissance Art.
What is the focus of Cicero's Rhetoric, that you focus on one thing, and you make that one thing stand out.
The idea that you stand out, is what makes artists famous and throughout history.
How you become a great artist, is to write down all the rules, and then break all the rules.
Mannerism can be considered as artists in the renaissance simply breaking all the rules in the pursuit of fame and fortune.
Religion is a mystery religion, and therefore religion cannot be composed of geometry is beauty and beauty is divine, it must be mysterious.
