A two-minute test
Lippi or Mantegna?
ArtStudy players mixed these two up 8 times in the last 90 days. One clue is usually all it takes.
Filippo Lippi
Fra Filippo Lippi gives sacred scenes a domestic sweetness — pale, pretty Madonnas with pearl-trimmed veils, curious children, and clear Florentine line over transparent colour.
Andrea Mantegna
Mantegna paints with hard, sculptural precision and daring foreshortening, as if figures were carved from stone.
Can you tell them apart?
One clue to notice, the two side by side, then three paintings you haven’t seen. No sign-up.
