They are mass-producing a piece of writing, a newspaper or a book perhaps. This drawing displays new ideas of the Renaissance, like mass-producing, workspaces for print makers and the invention of the printing press. The drawing lacks the Medieval use of color and a border, the artist might have left out these things because tonal shading had just been discovered and the use of color might have obscured the shading because at that time perhaps they did not yet know how to shade with colors and so, left them out of their drawings. In the Renaissance drawing there is a clear background of the workshop and a definite sense of depth in the room. The drawing is simplistic in that a fancy border might have changed the effect of a crisp finish around the edges. One might get the feeling that this drawing is very raw and down to earth. The cause is most likely the black and white theme. One can definitely see the increase of sophistication and resources as the Renaissance drawing has depth, a background and all the figures are different. These things were typical in drawings during the Middle Renaissance. One can see how a new understanding of the face (as none of the figures’ faces look the same), depth, perception (as the workshop has a clear perception of depth) and the invention of ideas (e.g. the invention of the printing press) are present
