EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Filippino Lippi's masterpiece, "Allegory" painted between 1485 and 1490. The artwork, created with oil on panel, is currently housed in the prestigious Galleria degli Uffizi in Florence, Italy. The painting depicts a profound allegorical scene that explores the theme of familial discord. Titled "No Plague is Worse Than an Enemy in the Family" it portrays a cityscape backdrop where two brothers stand divided by deceit and betrayal. A menacing snake slithers between them, symbolizing their enmity. Lippi's attention to detail is evident as he skillfully captures the emotions of each character. The father figure looks on with sadness and disappointment at his sons' falling out. This Renaissance masterpiece not only exemplifies Lippi's artistic prowess but also serves as a reflection of human nature and its complexities. The composition beautifully combines elements of landscape art with narrative storytelling. The vibrant colors and intricate brushwork bring life to this timeless piece, inviting viewers to contemplate the consequences of family strife within a larger societal context. As we gaze upon this remarkable print from Fine Art Finder, we are reminded of the enduring power of art to convey universal truths about human relationships and provoke introspection.
