This image highly resonates with many aspects of the Renaissance period. In the Renaissance period, there is a moving away from awe and that is clearly expressed in the image with the symmetrical proportionality and balance present. Furthermore, there is an aura of eurythmia in regards to the harmony and beauty (ex- the clouds and beautiful statues). To continue, there are semicircular arches, which directly coincides with the Antiquity period and their large emphasis on the construction of arches. The Renaissance works to rebirth aspects from Classical Roman antiquity period and this image does a fine job of representing that.
