Cappella Brancacci

Why go

Few rooms make stylistic comparison this direct. Masolino’s poised figures, Masaccio’s solid bodies and deep spaces, and Filippino Lippi’s later completion share one cycle from the lives of Saint Peter, Adam and Eve, turning a chapel into a close study of change.

What to look for

• Masaccio’s Expulsion gives Adam and Eve an unusually raw physical grief.
• The Tribute Money builds one continuous narrative within a convincing landscape and space.
• Filippino Lippi completed parts of the cycle after Masaccio’s early death.

Useful to know

• Compare Masolino’s Temptation with Masaccio’s Expulsion on the opposite side before following the Saint Peter scenes.
• Visit Santa Maria del Carmine separately if you want to see the church beyond the chapel route.
