DIADUMENfi, Edward J. Poynter, Lon- don ; canvas. A nude female figure, full length, standing, binding her hair ; back- ground, a marble bath with mosaic columns. The pose of the figure and the name are de- Filippo Lippi, and his assistant in painting the frescos at Prato and Spoleto, the latter of which were finished by him after his mas- ter's death. Vasari says he attained great perfection in imitating Fra Filippo's manner and obtained great credit for it. It is not possible to distinguish his hand in any of his master's work.
