	Biography
		Lippi's art, and probably this painting, are warmly praised by Domenico Veneziano in a letter of 1438 to Piero, son of Cosimo de' Medici, with whom Fra Filippo had close dealings.
		Filippo Lippi was not dedicated to the study of nature firsthand; instead, he depended largely upon painted and sculptured prototypes, and his figures are often inorganic and unanatomical, rendered without an ultimate conviction for their three-dimensional presence.
		Lippi was highly regarded in his day (he was patronized by the Medici, who came to his aid when he was imprisoned and tortured for alleged fraud) and his influence is seen in the work of numerous artists, most notably Botticelli, who was probably his pupil.

	Filippo Lippi - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Lippi was Born in Florence to Tommaso, a butcher.
		Towards June 1456 Fra Filippo was settled in Prato (near Florence) to paint frescoes in the choir of the cathedral.
		Lippi asked that she might be permitted to sit to him for the figure of the Madonna (or it might rather appear of S. Margherita); he made passionate love to her, abducted her to his own house, and kept her there spite of the utmost efforts the nuns could make to reclaim her.

	Fra Filippo Lippi
		Eventually Fra Filippo quitted his convent, but it appears that he was not relieved from some sort of religious vow; in a letter dated in 1439 he speaks of himself as the poorest friar of Florence, and says he is charged with the maintenance of six marriageable nieces.
		Towards June 1456 Fra Filippo was settled in Prato (near Florence) for the purpose of fulfilling a commission to paint frescoes in the choir of the cathedral.
		Lippi asked that she might be permitted to sit to him for the figure of the Madonna (or it might rather appear of S. Margherita); he made passionate love to her, abducted her to his own house, and kept her there spite of the utmost efforts the nuns could make to reclaim her.

		His "Death of St. Stephen" on the other hand shows us a magnificent architectural study, which reproduces the outlines of the nave of S. Lorenzo, one of the earliest examples of great monumental composition and majestic symmetry in a portrait scene, such as those which were later to form the glory of Ghirlandajo.
		This was the period at which Filippo's talent grew and broadened and seemed to reach its even perfection.

		Filippo has been even more successful in depicting the brutality and fury of those who are killing him with stones, some picking up large ones and some small, and grinding their teeth in a horrible manner in their cruelty and fury.
		Filippo designed excellently, as may be seen in our hook of the drawings of the most famous painters, and especially in some sheets containing his designs for the picture of S. Spirito, and in others of the chapel of Prato.

	Madonna and Child by LIPPI, Fra Filippo
		Orphaned at a young age, Filippo Lippi was raised in the Carmelite convent of Santa Maria in Florence, where he would undoubtedly have seen Masaccio and Masolino at work on the frescoes in the Brancacci chapel.
		Filippo's Virgin is wistful and slightly melancholy, while the infant's heavy, almost muscular form recalls Masaccio's emphatically three-dimensional figures.
		Filippo's Virgin and child, on the other hand, are bathed in an overall glow that prevents the modeling of the figures from overpowering the graceful and well-defined line of his composition.

		Filippo's invention was so copious, and his ornamentation so curious and original, that he was the first among the moderns to employ the new method of varying the costumes, and to dress his figures in the short antique vestments.
		Filippo put the finishing touches, and did the remainder of a scene where Peter and Paul are raising the emperor's nephew, 3 the child, who is nude, being a portrait of Francesco Granacci the painter, then a boy.
		When Filippo returned to Florence he undertook to do the Chapel of Filippo Strozzi the elder in S. Maria Novella, 13 and he began it, but after doing the ceiling he had to return to Rome, where he made a tomb for the cardinal in stucco.

		'Fra Filippo Lippi was gracious and ornate and exceedingly skilful; he was very good at compositions and at variety, at colouring, relief, and in ornaments of every kind', wrote Cristoforo Landino in 1480; his comment remains a valid assessment of Fra Filippo's style.
		Fra Filippo's pictures were popular in Florence and he was actively supported by the Medici family, who commissioned the 'The Annunciation and Seven Saints'.
		Lippi's early style is based on that of Masaccio but he later moved towards more richly decorative and lyrical effects.

		Filippo had already established his own artistic style and repeated many of the same elements in his works.
		By combining the theories that the Walters panel is a result of the patron's taste but that it comes from the workshop of Filippo Lippi, an evolving theory develops that attributes multiple factors as the cause of these stylistic changes.

		1a–c), Lippi became the first exponent of a chiaroscuro approach to modeling form, with gold reduced to occasional embellishment on the wings of angels or the embroidery of a piece of clothing or the scattered dots of a halo.
		Documenting a pivotal moment in Lippi's career, the altarpiece brings to a close the more naturalistic experiments of the 1430s and announces the new emphasis on artifice, crucial to understanding his later paintings.
		Of the art of Filippo Lippi's most famous pupil, Botticelli, Daniel Arasse has written that the coherence of his art resides "in the distance the artist has put between himself and the search for illusionistic effects through the imitation of nature.

		Vasari's amusing and rather tongue-in-cheek account of the difficult phases in the artist's youth and development describes the novice as the epitome of laziness and scholastic lack of discipline and says that instead of studying, all he did was scribble all over his books and those of his classmates.
		Lippi was to reach the heights of his success when he agreed to go and work for the city of Prato (1452-1465), and afterwards for Spoleto, where he died in 1469, leaving his beautiful frescoes of the Stories of the Virgin in the Cathedral unfinished, later completed by his pupil Fra' Diamante.
		Filippo Lippi's are the most emblematic examples of Tuscan Renaissance painting and include his Madonna of the Girdle, carried out in collaboration with his pupil Fra' Diamante.

		The artist named in the inventory was Fra Angelico, but this work is usually thought to be a collaboration between him and a fellow Florentine, Fra Filippo Lippi.
		Very likely the painting remained in one of their studios (whose is still debated) for a number of years, receiving sporadic attention from several workshop painters.
		The sweetly angelic Virgin and Child, the throng of worshipers in the upper right, and the rich carpet of plants in the foreground were probably painted by Fra Angelico.
