Treasures of the past: how medieval art inspires contemporary animation

Medieval art, a key inspiration in contemporary animation. Contemporary animation does not always look forward. On many occasions, it finds its greatest source of innovation by looking to the past. Medieval art, with its symbolic power, visual storytelling and meaningful aesthetics, has become a key inspiration for filmmakers and animation studios looking to build unique and memorable worlds. [Stained glass windows, illuminated codices, tapestries and frescoes have been brought back to life on the big screen, transformed into visual languages that break with classical realism. Have you ever noticed these medieval echoes while watching your favorite animated movies?. Visual keys to medieval art. Medieval art developed with a clear objective: to tell stories and transmit ideas in a society where the image was a fundamental language. Some of its most recognizable characteristics are: - Intense and symbolic color palettes, with a predominance of golds, deep blues, reds and greens. - Flat perspective, where hierarchy matters more than realistic depth. - Religious and mythological iconography, loaded with coded meanings. - Manuscript illumination, with geometric patterns, ornamental frames and decorated capitals. - Stained glass and tapestries, which narrate complete scenes through composition and repetition. These resources were not only decorative: they functioned as a powerful, clear and emotional narrative tool.
