# Tomb monument to Filippo Lippi [View the canonical artwork record]() ## Artwork - Artist: [UNKNOWN MASTER, Italian]() - Date: 1451-1500 - Technique: Marble ## Commentary The marble tomb monument to the painter Fra Filippo Lippi was commissioned by Lorenzo de' Medici some twenty years after the painter's death, as a memorial to the painter's lifelong ties to the house of Medici. Thanks to Vasari's detailed account, it seems virtually certain that Filippino Lippi himself executed the design for the richly decorated wall monument that was placed below the organ and above the door to the sacristy. The epigram on the monument was written by Angelo Poliziano. ## Related artworks - [A Bishop Saint]() - [A Curious Scene]() - [Adam and Eve; Cain and Abel]() - [Adoration of St Mark]() - [Allegorical Portrait of Dante]() - [Altar frontal]() - [Altarpiece \(detail\)]() - [Altarpiece of St Clare \(detail\)]() - [Altarpiece of St Clare \(detail\)]() - [Altarpiece of St Clare]() - [Altarpiece of the Magi]() - [Altarpiece]() ## Attribution [Web Gallery of Art]()
