	Fra Diamante - LoveToKnow 1911
		FRA DIAMANTE, Italian fresco painter, was born at Prato about 1400.
		He was the principal assistant of Fra Filippo in the grand frescoes which may still be seen at the east end of the cathedral of Prato.
		The accusation of wrong-doing, however, would depend upon the share of the work executed by Fra Diamante, and the terms of his agreement with Fra Filippo.

	Painter/Artist: Fra Fillippo Lippi (c.1406-69)
		Fra Filippo was born in Florence, the son of a butcher, and in 1421 took his vows in the Carmelite order.
		Fra Filippo was convicted of forgery, was sued for breach of contract, was notoriously tardy at finishing commissions, and, perhaps his most publicized escapade, abducted from a convent of which he was chaplain a nun who ultimately bore him two children, one being the painter Filippino Lippi.
		Fra Filippo was buried in Spoleto at the request of local authorities who, according to Vasari, pointed out the great number of illustrious men buried in Florence and the few in Spoleto.

	Biography
		Unlike the Dominican Fra Angelico, however, Lippi was a reluctant friar and had a scandalous love affair with a nun, Lucrezia Buti, who bore his son Filippino and a daughter Alessandra.
		Fra Filippo began to fresco the enormous choir of the Cathedral of Prato in 1452 (after Fra Angelico had turned down the assignment).
		Like Fra Angelico, Fra Filippo Lippi was taken with landscape, and he was successful in this genre in the backgrounds of many pictures; but his world is predominantly fantasy, accentuated by an unnaturalistic palette.

	Painters Of Florence - Filippino Lippi
		FILIPPINO LIPPI was the son of Fra Filippo and Lucrezia Buti, the nun of Prato, and adopted this name to distinguish him from his father.
		He was born at Prato, in 1457, and received his first training from Fra Filippo, after whose death, in 1469, he returned to Florence with Fra Diamante and was placed in Sandro Botticelli's workshop.
		The result justified the wisdom of their choice, and the five subjects which the young master painted in the famous chapel are not unworthy of the proud place they occupy.

		The little curly-haired Filippino, left in the charge of good Fra Diamante, soon showed that he meant to be a painter like his father.

		He would much rather have painted the scenes and the people he saw every day, but he remembered the prior's lecture, and still painted only the stories of saints and holy people--the gentle Madonna with her scarlet book of prayers, the dove fluttering near, and the angel messenger with shining wings bearing the lily branch.
		He it was who begged the Pope to allow Fra Filippo to marry Lucrezia (for monks, of course, were never allowed to marry), and the Pope, too, was kind and granted the request, so that all went well.

		Filippo's invention was so copious, and his ornamentation so curious and original, that lie 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.
		On the way he passed through Spoleto, at Lorenzo's desire, to give directions for the making of a marble tomb for Fra' Filippo, his father, at the cost of that prince, who had not been able to obtain the body from the Spoletans for burial in Florence.
