Verified profile

The depiction of Tobiolo with the Archangel Raphael, particularly fortunate in 15th-century Florence, is here completed with the archangels Michael and Gabriel, recognizable respectively by the armor with the sword and the lily of the Annunciation. Half of the background is occupied by the landscape, softened by the warm light that pervades the entire work. Observing the feminine aspect of the four characters on the way, and in particular the graceful cadence of the step of Raphael and Gabriel or the sinuosity of their clothes, it is difficult not to think of certain famous figures by Botticelli. For this reason the author of the painting, when his identity was still being discussed, began to be known as Friend of Sandro, while later it became clear that he was the newcomer Filippino Lippi (1457-1504). After the death of his father Filippo, a great Florentine painter of the mid-fifteenth century, Filippino artistically grew up alongside Botticelli. Despite the dependence on the most well-known colleague, in this youthful framework we already notice a marked interest in the landscape and a coloristic ability that will be found even when Filippino will by now become one of the most original artists active in the passage from '400 to' 500 .
