| | Tommaso Masaccio - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Masaccio profoundly influenced the art of painting in the Renaissance, According to Vasari, all Florentine painters studied extensively his frescoes in order to "learn the precepts and rules for painting well". | | | Masaccio meaning sloppy was a nickname given by Giorgio Vasari on account of the artist's dedication to his painting being so great he gave little attention to his personal hygiene. | | | Masaccio's works have been always pointed out for the introduction of Humanism in art. |

| | hese words 600 years after the birth of Masaccio (Tommaso was born on 21 December 1401) remember the importance of his genius and its fundamental role in the millenarian history of art. | | | "……It was Masaccio, the youngest of all painters who were young before during and after him who, in his few youthful years, worked the miracle of awakening in painting, breathing life into it at last real and earthy, an urgency it had never had before." | | | In his painting the rigorous construction of spacial perspective, and the sapient use of chiaroscuro and colour, accompany a profound human and moral content expressed in intense, tragic drama. |

| | Runaway Studios - Masaccio Biography |
| | Masaccio provided a fresh new approach to art during the peak of the prevailing Gothic age of art. | | | Through Masaccio's paintings, man became an entity that exhibited feeling whilst slated into the reality of life itself. | | | Having owed little to very few other artists who went before him (with the exception of Brunelleschi, Giotto and Donatello), Masaccio led the way to this new creative awakening through his knowledge of mathematics and combinations of simplicity and three-dimensionality. |

| | Masaccio, Tommaso di Giovanni di Simone Guidi |
| | He was the first painter to apply the scientific laws of perspective, newly discovered by the architect Brunelleschi, and achieved a sense of space and volume that gives his pictures a sculptural quality. | | | Other works by Masaccio are the Trinity about 1428 (Santa Maria Novella, Florence) and the polyptych for the Carmelite church in Pisa in 1426 (divided between National Gallery, London; Staatliche Museen, Berlin; Museo di Capodimonte, Naples). | | | Although brief, his career marks a turning point in Italian art. |

| | Masaccio: 1401-1428 |
| | Masaccio studied art in Florence and gained recognition as a master painter by the time he was twenty-one. | | | Masaccio's significance for modern painting was never doubted. | | | According to the Renaissance artist and biographer Giorgi Vasari, Tommaso received his nickname, Masaccio, (which means big, clumsy Thomas), because of his absent mindedness about worldly affairs, carelessness about his personal appearance, and other seemingly needless behavior. |

| | CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Masaccio |
| | Masaccio was very precocious: we find him at the age of nineteen already enrolled among the Speziali (Grocers, or Spicers), one of the "arts", or guilds. | | | The state register of property for the year 1427 shows that Masaccio "possesses nothing of his own, owes one hundred and two lire to one painter, and six florins to another; that nearly all his clothing is in pawn at the Lion and the Cow loan-offices". | | | Moderately esteemed in his own time, Masaccio was accorded enthusiastic admiration only after his death; but—as is only rarely the case—the enthusiasm has not cooled in the duration of five centuries: it has even degenerated into excessive adulation. |

| | So intense was Masaccio's devotion to his art, Vasari related, that the artist cared little about clothing or money, even failing to collect debts, despite his poverty. | | | Of all the works of Masaccio, the Brancacci Chapel seems most crucial to our understanding of his contributions to Renaissance art and his place within it. | | | Identified in Leon Battista Alberti's treatise On Painting (1435/6) among the creators of a new style of art, Masaccio [Tommaso di Giovanni di Simone Guidi] (1401-28) ever since has been recognized as the founder of 15th-century Florentine painting. |

| | Fra Filippo Lippi (1406 - October 8?, 1469), commonly called Lippo Lippi, one of the most renowned painters of the Italian quattrocento (quattrocento: The 15th century in Italian art and literature), was born in Florence (Florence: A town in northeast South Carolina; transportation center) ; his father, Tommaso, was a butcher. | | | Between 1430 and 1432 he executed some works in the monastery, which were destroyed by a fire in 1771; they are specified by Vasari, and one of them was particularly marked by its resemblance to Masaccio's style. | | | His mother died in his childhood, and his father survived his wife only two years. |

| | Florence Art Guide - Masaccio |
| | He was extremely young when he came to Florence and was to form part of the circle around Masolino da Panicale, also from his home town and twenty years his senior, though apparently their relationship was not that of teacher and pupil. | | | He was admitted, like most of the other artists, to the Guild of Doctors and Herbalists in 1422: his first work, carried out with Masolino, was the Madonna and Child and St. Anne (Sant'Anna Metterza, 1424-25), previously in the church of Sant'Ambrogio and now in the Uffizi. | | | Rather, it seems that the presence of the already brilliant Masaccio, with the introduction of the new rules of perspective and naturalism, was to give new impulse to Masolino's work, which had hitherto tended to keep to late Gothic models. |

| | Here Masaccio using a mirror has painted his own portrait as an apostle, standing at the end, and it is done so well that it is like life. | | | Remarkable too is the ardour of St. Peter in his questioning, and the attention of the apostles in their various poses around Christ as they wait for his decision with gestures which are natural and full of life. | | | The painting by Masaccio of The Tribute Money is part of the fresco cycle of the Life of St. Peter commissioned by Felice Brancacci in 1424 for the Church of Santa Maria del Carmine in Florence. |
