The Holy Trinity: Masaccio

Innovators are used in all fields of work such as Albert Einstein in physics, Isaac Newton in mathematics, Masaccio in early Renaissance paintings. Even if these people work in different fields, their work will have a major impact on future generations. Based on the works of original Renaissance painters such as Giotto, Masaccio further develops linear perspective mathematics and opens windows for audiences. His creative style can be found in most of his work, such as "The Tribute Money" seen in the Brancacci church, but his best example is not far from the Brancacci church in Florenc.

Masaccio's Holy Trinity and Grunewald's Isenheim altarpiece comparison Masaccio's Holy Trinity painting was completed in about 1428 years. This is a good example of how to use Masaccio's space and view. It consists of two different heights. The representative of Christ is in the upper square-barrel-shaped arched chapel. There is Virgin Mary on one side and St. John on the other. - The early Renaissance art of Florence was focused on sophisticated Gothic paintings; it is very formal and traditional, but there is always something that seems to be missing. The perspective and depth are two very important qualities of painting, but until the young Masaccio (born in Tommaso Guidi), the painting was beautiful, but it seemed just like the art hanging on the wall. In Masaccio's work, "It seems that these numbers come forward instead of retreating in space" (Cole 120)

The Holy Trinity of Masaccio has become an influential painting by several generations of artists in Florence. After more than a century of writing, biographer Biographer George Vasari (1511-74) was shocked by Masaccio's perspective microcosm and I was convinced that a hole was made in the wall containing the fictional chapel . In 1570, an altar of stone was built in the church of Santa Maria Novella, which covered the mural painting of Masaccio. Thus, from 1570 until 1861, murals remained invisible for nearly three centuries until the altar was removed and the picture became visible again. However, until 1952 - the lower part of the painting (skeleton) was also discovered - the entire mural painting was placed in the field of vision.
