Holy Trinity, Renaissance fresco in Santa Maria Novella, Florence, Italy
The Holy Trinity fresco measures 667 centimeters in height and 317 centimeters in width, featuring life-sized figures within a classical architectural frame.
Between 1425 and 1427, Masaccio painted this monumental work, which remained covered by an altar and a Madonna del Rosario painting from 1570 until rediscovery.
The fresco integrates mathematical perspective principles with religious imagery, displaying God the Father, Christ on the cross, and the Holy Spirit as a dove.
Located on the third arcade of the left nave in Santa Maria Novella church, visitors can observe the fresco during regular church opening hours.
The bottom section contains a painted skeleton with Latin text reminding viewers about mortality: What you are, I once was; what I am, you will become.
