Brancacci Chapel’s Secrets Discover the Early Renaissance
Overview
Discover one of Florence’s most important Renaissance treasures with a visit to the Brancacci Chapel inside the Church of Santa Maria del Carmine.
Often described as the birthplace of Renaissance painting, the chapel is renowned for its fresco cycle by Masaccio and Masolino da Panicale, later completed by Filippino Lippi. Admire masterpieces such as Masaccio’s Expulsion of Adam and Eve and discover the innovative use of perspective, light, and human expression that influenced artists, including Michelangelo.
Your experience also includes the Sala della Colonna, home to rare sinopias and early Renaissance fresco fragments that reveal the techniques used to create these masterpieces.
Depending on the option selected, explore the Brancacci Chapel with a guide in a small group or enjoy the visit independently with an audio guide.
A must-see Florence art experience for anyone interested in Renaissance history, Italian art, and the masterpieces that changed Western painting forever.
