Although only partly by Masaccio, the Brancacci Chapel frescoes stand as Masaccio's most influential work and the one upon which rests his historical position as the first painter of the renaissance. His share in the work was probably done during 1427 and consisted of the Expulsion on the left inner pilaster, the Tribute Money and part of the Raising of the Son of Theophilus and St Peter Enthroned on the left wall. He also painted three scenes dealing with the life of St Peter on the altar wall, the fourth is by Masolino. Already famous in the fifteenth century, artists and art students paid their homage to these frescoes by studying and copying them.
