I’ve always found it interesting how drawing and paintings from the ancient era through the medieval era look almost cartoonish. Then (seemingly) all of the sudden people discovered how to make realistic artwork during the renaissance era. Why is that the case?

I can confidently tell you that they absolutely understood the uncanny valley and had no way to overcome it.
They (after centuries of failure) decided that trying to draw realistically was a losing battle and their art naturally turned towards impressionism.
As this is an art discussion, I will assert that I am correct; as art is all about interpretation or something.
