1) The Northern Renaissance began in the 1400s and stressed an interest in realism over classical ideas.

Explanation:

The Northern Renaissance started to take place in the 1400s, almost a century following the beginning of the Renaissance in Italy. Both scholars and artists from Northern Europe stressed the importance of realism over classical ideas from Rome and Greece. Some of the most important artists of this period include Dieric Bouts the Elder, Petrus Christus, Gerrit David, Jan Provost, Quentin Massys, Jan Gossaert, and Joos van Cleve.
