This is website about the Brancacci chapel, I took some painting in there. There are many great painting. The Brancacci chapel is in Florence, sometimes can also called Sistine Chapel. It commissioned by Pietro Brancacci in 1386. The chapel influenced of the early Renaissence style. Felice Brancacci who is descendant of Pietro hired Masolino da Panicale to paint his chapel. However, he quited. Masaccio finished the painting of the chapel.
===========================================
This painting is St. Peter Healing the Sick with His Shadow, by Masaccio. In this painting, the lead looks like a king. The man lie prone to him. It can see that St. Peter is important, and the man in left side is poor. I choose it because the painter made the lead's color more bright, so St. Peter jumps out. I can even feel dignity of him.------------------------------------------------------
This painting is The Distribution of Alms and the Death of Ananias by Masaccio. The man I think is Ananias, he lied to God. He laid in ground. I choose this painting because the color makes me focus on the yellow clothes, I reckon he's God or other important person. The normal people dress on brown colthes, but God dress yellow. It shows their status. This is why I choose it.
