Image title: Saint Peter Healing the Sick with His Shadow (San Pietro risana gli infermi con la sua ombra), by Masaccio, 1425-1427, 15th Century, fresco, 230 x 162 cm - Italy, Tuscany, Florence, Church of Santa Maria del Carmine, Brancacci Chapel. Detail. Saint Peter, wearing an orange mantle, walks solemnly along the street, followed by Saint John, who wears a pink mantle; at his passage, his shadow heals a group of sick people on the left roadside: one of them stands up and thanks the saint, a second man is standing up calmly and a third one, who lies down, looks the saint with a sentiment of trepidation; the classic iconography gives various meanings to these figures: the character wearing the red headgear was thought to be Masolino or maybe Donatello; the character of Saint Peter was thought to be a portrait of Lo Scheggia, Masaccio's brother; the character of an old, bearded man, similar to one of the Wise Men depicted in the Masaccio's Polyptic of Pisa, was thought to be Bicci da Lorenzo ©Archivio Quattrone/Antonio Quattrone/Electa/Leemage
