Masaccio's chronological list of main paintings[edit]
A chronological excursus on Masaccio's main pictorial production. Listed below, a list of paintings by masaccio ordered chronologically and showing his progress in artistic development.
Gallery[edit]
With the work of Masaccio began the search for the rendering of three-dimensional space and for the placing therein of figures plasically conceived. The newly discovered laws of perspective were applied, the drawing of foreshortened parts was correct, the anatomy of the human body was well understood. According to Giorgio Vasari, Masaccio owed his artistic education to Masolino da Panicale, but Masaccio, although he died 20 years before his master, carried the advance in naturalism further. Much of his work has been destroyed, and what remains is often in poor condition, but undergoing some restoration. The artist's standard work is in the Brancacci Chapel, in the Church of Santa Maria del Carmine at Florence. Here Masolino had left unfinished a series of frescoes which Masaccio was asked to continue: his six paintings there ccreated a sensation and became the training school of Florentine painters of the succeeeding generations, of Michalangelo with the rest. Masaccio did not complete the decoration of the chapel. In 1428 he left for Rome, and was reported dead soon afterwards.[1] References[edit]
