Expulsion of Adam and Eve from Eden - Masaccio

Fresco painting by Masaccio in the Brancacci Chapel in the church of Santa Maria del Carmine, Florence. This painting with its display of anguish and movement was a break for the static pictorial style of medieval art and as such the beginning of the Renaissance movement. The shadows in the painting fall to the left which aligns with the actual light coming from the chapel's window.

Some 300 years after this was painted, Cosimo III de' Medici ordered fig leaves to be painted over the figures to hide their nudity. These additions were removed when the paintings were restored in the 1980s.
