This point was considered to assist in drawing together all aspects of the painting (landscape, houses, and figures) in spatial unity. "All lines on the buildings in the right of the picture follow the orthogonals to the vanishing point. A mathematical division called caesura structures the painting. These are based on musical scales, and the first caesura falls upon Christ" (Mifflin, Houghton. Tribute Money by Masaccio, February 12, 2003. http:college.hmco.comhistorywestmosaicchapter 7image92.html)
The figures in The Tribute Money are individualized. Masaccio"tms figures
are constructed through an observational and anatomical approach. The bodies and its draperies are modeled by light, and had the three-dimensional quality achieved. There are a limited number of figures or objects, while they still retain a variety of poses, and gestures. Masaccio imitates nature while still ensuring that the painting conforms to the underlying mathematical formula. "The suggested figure types are also evident, with St. Peter and Christ being the "pointing figure"; the figure with the back facing us as the "lead-in figure"; the one on Christ"tms right acting as the "gazing figure" (http:

Masaccio painted the scene so that all linear lines would unite at a single point. The painting is located on the wall of a chapel in Santa Maria Novella, Florence. The painting has a very soft look to it your almost taken aback. The form gives the subject matter more depth. The archway that God"tms standing in front of is almost never ending, and the detail of the ceiling is amazing. It seems to make GodJesus pop out at you. The intensity of the colors Masaccio used in this painting just catches your eye. The orange of the arches gets brighter as it goes deeper into the chapel. Even the black of Gods cloak catches your eye making him the perspective point. The space is very confined, and it is symmetrical. You can practically fold the painting in half and it would be the same on both sides. These elements are important because they give the painting meaning and life at the same time. From the skeleton at the bottom of the painting to life at the top Masaccio wanted to convey that there is, in his eyes, life after death.
