He lived the majority of his life in and around Florence, Italy making him an artist of the Florentine School. The early 15th century was an exciting time to live in Florence. It was the time of great artists like Lorenzo Ghiberti, Masaccio, and Fra Angelico who were laying the painterly foundations of the Italian Renaissance for later artists like Leonardo da Vinci and Michelangelo.New ideas like humanism, and linear perspective were changing painters’ views of the world. Painting in a more naturalistic style was becoming more acceptable in Christian religious paintings. The Virgin Mary could be painted as a real flesh and blood woman. The Christ Child could be depicted as a real baby and not as a miniature man. The sensuous beauty of the world could be used to magnify the spiritual beauty of the divine. Fra Filippo Lippi used these changing ideas throughout his Madonna and Child with Two Angels. He successfully conveys an image of a beautiful young mother and her plump healthy baby to become the Holy Mother and the Holy Child.Madonna and Child with Two Angels depicts the two most important people of the New Testament: Mary and Jesus. Mary sits on the left side of the painting facing to the right with her hands in prayer, and her head slightly bowed in sad thought over her child’s fate. She wears the contemporary fashion of a 15th century Florentine noblewoman with pearls intertwined in her hair. The hair is fashionably dressed with a fine and transparent veil, and with a high hairline created by shaving or plucking the forehead. Mary may be a figure from the Bible, but she is presented as a courtly lady from the present full of living grace and charm.NOTE: Purchases totaling $35 and above qualify for FREE shipping.
