Masaccio’s realistic depiction of human figures, space, and light using not line but strongly differentiated areas of light and dark to create the illusion of three-dimensions influenced many major artists. This includes Florentine painters such as Filippo Lippi and Fra Angelico, and such later artists as Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo, and Raphael.
