Male Saint ca. 1447–1469 Workshop of Fra Filippo Lippi Italian This painting and another depicting an unidentified male saint, which also belongs to the Lehman Collection (), formed part of a group of eighteen panels depicting saints (now in the Courtauld Institute Gallery, London; Worcester Art Museum, Massachusetts; Fogg Art Museum, Cambridge, Massachusetts; Honolulu Academy of Arts, Hawaii; University of Georgia, Athens, Georgia; and on the art market, 1985), which may have adorned a sacristy cupboard. The figures in the series appear to have been executed by three different hands, several of which may derive from drawings by the early fifteenth-century Florentine artist Fra Filippo Lippi. The two Lehman panels are the most distinguished in the series, although the artist responsible for them -- a member of Lippi's workshop -- cannot be Male Saint. Workshop of Fra Filippo Lippi (Italian, Florence ca. 1406–1469 Spoleto). Italian, Florence. ca. 1447–1469. Tempera and gold on wood. Paintings
