Description

Discover the secrets of the Brancacci Chapel on a guided tour. Step into the world of Masaccio, Masolino, and Filippino Lippi as hidden meanings, surprising details, and the intrigue behind every depicted scene are revealed. Marvel at the poignant expulsion of Adam and Eve from Paradise and the dramatic narration of Saint Peter’s life, moving you as you watch the masterful interplay of light and shadow on frescoes that seem to “sculpt” the scenes. Remarkably, many views within the painted cycle are set against the landscape of 15th-century Florence, featuring well-known figures of the era, including the very creators of the frescoes. Among the various characters, you will recognize some of the great Renaissance artists: this is your chance for exclusive, up-close encounters with Filippo Brunelleschi, the brilliant architect behind the famous Dome, and Sandro Botticelli, the painter of the sublime Venus, offering you the perfect opportunity for original and memorable photos.
