The Tribute Money is a fresco by the Italian renaissance painter Masaccio, located in the Brancacci
Chapel of the basilica of Santa Maria del Carmine, Florence, and completed by his senior
collaborator, Masolino. Painted in the 1420s, it is widely considered among Massaccio's best work,
and a vital part of the development of renaissance art.
The story is told in three parts that do not occur sequentially, but the narrative logic is still
maintained, through compositional devises. The central scene is that of the tax collector demanding
the tribute. The head of Christ is the vanishing point of the painting, drawing the eyes of the
spectator there. Both Christ and Peter then point to the left hand part of the painting, where the next
scene takes place in the middle background: Peter taking the money out of the mouth of the fish.
The final scene – where Peter pays the tax collector – is at the right.
Traditionally Jesus is dressed in pink and blue. While the holy men – except for St. Peter - are
dressed almost entirely in robes of pastel pink and blue, the official wears a shorter tunic of a
striking vermilion. The colour adds to the impertinence expressed through his gestures. The colours
are contrasting the holy men and the impertinent tax collector.
