Masolino da Panicale (also known as Tommaso di Cristoforo Fini) (Panicale, Umbria c. 1383 – c. 1447) was an Italian painter. His best known works are probably his collaborations with Masaccio: Madonna with Child and St. Anne (1424) and the frescoes in the Brancacci Chapel (1424-1428).
His principal works include:
- Madonna and Child (1423), Tempera on panel in Kunsthalle Bremen, Germany
- Madonna and Child, Saint Anne and the Angels (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.
- Frescoes depicting the "Life of St. John the Baptist" (1435) in the Baptistery of Castiglione Olona.
Giorgio Vasari includes a biography of Masolino in his Lives.
