Fra Angelico
an Italian monk (=a member of an all-male Christian religious group) and painter, famous for the frescoes that he painted on church walls (?1400- 1455). orig. Guido di Pietro born 1400, Vicchio, Florence [Italy] died Feb. 18, 1455, Rome Italian painter and Dominican friar active in Florence. He entered the convent of San Domenico at Fiesole sometime between 1417 and 1425 and began his artistic career by painting illuminated manuscripts and altarpieces. He was influenced by Masaccio's use of architectural perspective. Among his earliest masterpieces is a large triptych, the Linaiuoli Altarpiece (1433-36), executed for the linen merchants' guild; it is enclosed in a marble shrine designed by Lorenzo Ghiberti. His most notable works are frescoes at the convent of San Marco, Florence ( 1440-45), and in the chapel of Pope Nicholas V in the Vatican ( 1448-49). One of the outstanding fresco painters of the 15th century, he influenced such masters as Fra Filippo Lippi; Benozzo Gozzoli was among his students
Fra Bartolomeo
orig. Baccio della Porta born March 28, 1472, Florence died Oct. 31, 1517, Florence Italian painter active in Florence. His early works, such as the Annunciation (1497) in Volterra Cathedral, were influenced by Perugino and Leonardo da Vinci. In 1500 he joined the Dominican order. He painted religious subjects, primarily the Madonna and Child in various settings, with monumental figures grouped in balanced compositions. He became a prominent exponent of the High Renaissance style and was the leading painter in Florence, rivaled only by Andrea del Sarto
Fra Bartolommeo
{i} (1475-1517, birth name: Bartolommeo di Pagolo del Fattorino) Italian painter
Fra Filippo Lippi
born 1406, Florence died Oct. 8/10, 1469, Spoleto, Papal States Italian painter. In 1421 he became a Carmelite monk at Santa Maria del Carmine in Florence, where Masaccio was soon decorating the Brancacci Chapel with frescoes. Lippi himself painted frescoes in the church, much influenced by Masaccio's, then disappeared from the monastery in 1432. In 1434 he was in Padua, but in 1437 he returned to Florence under the protection of the Medici family and was commissioned to execute several works for convents and churches. His Madonna and Child (1437) and Annunciation ( 1442) show a maturing style characterized by warm colouring and attention to decorative effects. Later critics have recognized in Lippi a "narrative" spirit that reflected the life of his time and translated into everyday terms the ideals of the early Renaissance. In 1456, while painting in a convent in Prato, he fled with one of the nuns, Lucrezia Buti. The couple was later released from their individual vows and permitted to marry, and from that union was born the illustrious Filippino Lippi. The former friar returned often to Prato, and his frescoes in the cathedral there stand among his finest achievements
