Ho bad n rather mil fate, large features, nnd thick lips. Las-.lneBB and love were always Interfering with bis work. As a result of rxtravagance bo was usually In debt, and not always care ful to Rot out honestly. Yet the people of his time were kind hearted ciioiikIi to overlook boyish fanlls In an nrtlst who brnu.Tht t.o much re nown to their country. Fliliipo vat. ijorn Into a Floren tine butcher's family about 1102, and big f-ither died soon afterward. lie seems to have bad little care from his mot bar, who may, however, have died durliiK his Infancy. An nunt took care of him; hut, llnillnt; the linv . . t A .. i t.. or means, turned mm over 10 uu uuh cated by the Carmellto friars. The abbott was lenient; for be had the wisdom to see that a boy who drew pictures all over the walls and on bis books when be should have been studying would probably become an artist. ArtlEts were highly thought of those days, when the church taught by means of pictures. Flllppo therefore never learned to write good Latin. Ho studied the frescoes of the chapel Instead. Later, when ho bail llnlsbed bis studies and gained a name for himself among painters, the abbott granted him permission to leave the moiinstry In order to give bin genius full scope. Monks who bad learned to paint were often ! allowed this privilege. So Fra Flllppo became a groat, painter. When ho went to Prato and saw Lucre.la Hull ho was already nearly HO years old, while she was hardly more than twenty. She was also an orphan. Her father, who had been a silk merchant In Florence, left his daughtcro In the caro of An tonio Hutl: evidently a 'harsh guard Ian, for ho put Lucrezla and Splnctln, both beautiful girls, Into tbo convent of Santa Marghorlta against, their will, In order to save lilmnolf some expense. Flllppo aaw her, used her au a model, and later married her by permission of the Pope. Tho virgins and saints of his paintings had a new spiritual radiance after he saw Lu crezla's face, lie used her for all manner of subjects, from the Virgin to the "Untieing Daughter of Ilero dlas," changing her features to suit as many different characters.
