Hans Holbein contributed to the Renaissance by painting beautiful portraits. He is best known for his many portraits of King Henry VIII.
They were very powerful in Florence. A pope was a Medici and they had the banking system in Florence. Catherine Medici married the French king. The family supported the arts and hired Michelangelo to make David and for a time daVinci was also had them as a sponsor.
A patron would be a rich or famous person like a king or queen. They would usually higher an artist to paint pictures for them.
The power of individual monarchs greatly increased during the 'Reniassance' era, for example King Henry VIII of England greatly consolidated his power after the Reformation in england. Monarchys became absolute in a way that they had not been in the medieval era. It was the era when slavery, which had virtually died out in Europe during the medieval era, began to flourish again as slaves were needed to work in the new colonies founded in the Americas and the Caribbean. Opportunities for women to engage in trade and business dwindled during the Renaissance period, as women were squeezed out of many lucrative trades they had formerly worked in, like weaving for example.

Because he was one of the renaissance best painters. Along with people such as Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci, and Jan van eyck. What really made him important though is that he made the best portrait of king Henry VIII. I hope that answered your question. :)

He was the King of France.
The king during the Carolingian Renaissance was called Charlemagne.
There were many king Edwards, all of England, and none in France. The only Edward that can possibly be linked to the renaissance, Edward VI of England, only ruled for 6 years (1547 - 1553) and was underage during his reign. The English renaissance was just starting at that time. Ill leave it up to you to decide whether he was part of the renaissance or not. His reign took place in its era, but he himself did not contribute anything to it.
Francis I, King of France helped spread the renaissance.
