Grid drawing is a very old technique of transferring images (from sketches to a full size canvas or fresco, etc...)
Always make sure that the number of squares on the original picture and your working area are exactly the same (even if the size of the squares are bigger on the paper). This is because no matter how many times bigger (or smaller) you make the drawing, the proportions and dimensions can only stay the same if the number of boxes (squares) matches exactly.
Make sure you follow all steps below.

2.3 Overview: Painting in the 15th Century
Painting in the 15th Century
Despite the devastating spread and aftereffects of the bubonic plague, which killed millions of people, the 15th century was a time of growth that saw the rise of cities, commerce, and the arts.
The medieval focus had already started to shift from the heavenly world and was slowly replaced with a greater interest in humanity. The Italian priest Thomas Aquinas embraced the teachings of the Greek philosopher Aristotle, proving that reason and religion could coexist.
How did all of this affect the art of the late Middle Ages? Bright primary colors still dominated, but artists began to create depth through light and shadow. Graceful human figures lined Gothic churches. Art seemed full of life and movement.
The transition to the Renaissance was nearly complete.
