Answer: Masaccio

Masaccio is called "the Father of Renaissance Painting" and is also known as the trailblazer. He is well known from 1401-1428. He introduced realism in painting. It started from the life-size paintings which was not done during the middle ages. He was also known for using perspective and light and shadow in his paintings which is very different from the other techniques. His works include Tribute Money, Holy Trinity and Madonna and Child.
