Question 10

From the video, pause at a frame that shows Masaccio’s Holy Trinity in the space of the chapel.  In other words, pause where the video features the wall surrounding the space of the painting as well as the painting itself.  There are multiple shots of these in the video and any of those will work. Take a screenshot of BOTH the painting and the surrounding space. Upload your screenshot.

This is a quiz designed for you to notice how Masaccio utilized a flat surface and made a three-dimensional space. If your screenshot does not include the surrounding wall space, no points will be given.
