Slide 4 - The Renaissance in France French Renaissance Architecture is the style of architecture which was imported to France from Italy during the early 16 century and developed in the light of local architectural traditions. During the early years of the 16th century the Frence were involved in wars in Northern Italy, bringing back to France not just the Renaissance art treasures as their war booty, but also stylistic ideas. In the Loire Valley a wave of building was carried and many Renaissance chateau appeared at this time, the earliest example being the Chateau d’ Amboise.

During the first period, between about 1491 and 1540, the Italian style was copied directly, often by Italian architects and craftsmen. In the second period, between 1540 and the end of the Valois dynasty in 1589, French architects and craftsmen gave the style a more distinctive and original French character. Chateau d’ Amboise
