Seven Saints

Seven Saints is a tempera on panel (panel) painting by the Italian Early renaissance master Filippo Lippi, created around 1449–1459. It is part of a diptych, serving as a companion to his Annunciation. Originally commissioned for the decoration of the Palazzo Medici in Florence, the lunettes were likely positioned above a door or bed. The artwork exemplifies the delicate use of tempera on a canvas, a typical medium of the period. As a religious painting, it depicts seven saints in a vibrant, spiritual scene, highlighting Lippi's masterful composition and color palette.
