The Philosophers of Alexandria (detail) is a notable fresco created by the Italian Renaissance painter Tommaso Masolino da Panicale between 1428 and 1430. This work is part of a larger cycle of frescoes that adorn the walls of the Brancacci Chapel in the Church of Santa Maria del Carmine in Florence, Italy. Masolino, who was an influential figure in the early Renaissance period, is known for his delicate and refined style, which combines elements of Gothic art with the emerging naturalism of the Renaissance.

The fresco depicts a group of philosophers engaged in intellectual discourse, a theme that reflects the humanist interests of the time. The figures are rendered with a high degree of realism, showcasing Masolino's skill in portraying human anatomy and expressions. The use of light and shadow in the fresco demonstrates an advanced understanding of chiaroscuro, which helps to create a sense of depth and volume in the composition.

Masolino's work in the Brancacci Chapel was a collaborative effort with another renowned painter, Masaccio. While Masolino's style is more lyrical and graceful, Masaccio's contributions are characterized by their robust and dramatic quality. Together, their works in the chapel represent a significant moment in the development of Renaissance art, bridging the gap between the Gothic and the fully mature Renaissance styles.

The Philosophers of Alexandria (detail) is particularly admired for its intricate detailing and the harmonious arrangement of figures. The fresco not only serves as a testament to Masolino's artistic prowess but also reflects the intellectual and cultural milieu of early 15th-century Florence. The Brancacci Chapel, often referred to as the "Sistine Chapel of the Early Renaissance," continues to attract art historians and visitors alike, who seek to appreciate the groundbreaking works of Masolino and Masaccio.
