Masolino da Panicale (also known as Tommaso di Cristoforo Fini) (Panicale , Umbria c.1383-1447) was an Italian painter. His best known works are probably his collaborations with Masaccio: The Virgin and Child with Saint Anne (1424) and the frescoes in the Brancacci Chapel (1424-28).
His works include:
- Madonna and Child (1423)
- The Virgin and Child with Saint Anne (1424) painted for the church of Sant'Ambrogio in Florence
- Pope Gregory the Great and Saint Matthias (c.1425), part of a double-sided triptych in Santa Maria Maggiore, Rome
- An altarpiece depicting The Annunciation (1425/1430) for the Guardini chapel in the church of San Niccolò Oltrarno, Florence
Giorgio Vasari includes a biography of Masolino in his Lives.
