	The 15th Century
		The Fifteenth Century saw the end of the Medieval period in Scotland and the rest of Europe.

		For Scotland, however, the century is marked by the fact that of the four kings crowned during it, none of them died peacefully in their beds.

	15th Century Renaissance Painting
		In the seventeenth century the painters of Spain and the Netherlands were at least the equals and often the superiors of their Italian brethren of the same date, a fact which has its analogies in the history of architecture.
		In turning to the sixteenth century painting we note its most important monumental works as the decoration of the Sistine Chapel of the Vatican, by Michael Angelo; the wall-paintings of the Vatican by Raphael, and the decoration of the Doge's Palace in Venice by a whole series of the great Venetian artists.
		The idea of fifteenth century art derived from these latter pictures would, for this reason, be a narrow one and yet they are the only pictures which foreign museums or galleries can display, because they are the only ones which are transferable or portable.
