"St. Peter Freed from Prison" (1481-82) is a distinguished fresco by the Italian Renaissance painter Filippino Lippi, located in the Brancacci Chapel, within the church of Santa Maria del Carmine in Florence. This artwork is part of a larger series of frescoes in the chapel, which are collectively considered one of the most significant and influential projects of the early Renaissance. Filippino Lippi was commissioned to complete the fresco cycle initiated by Masaccio and Masolino, two pioneering figures of Renaissance art, who had left the work unfinished due to Masaccio's untimely death and Masolino's departure.

The fresco depicts the biblical story from the Acts of the Apostles (12:6-10), where an angel appears to Saint Peter, who is imprisoned and chained, and miraculously frees him, guiding him past sleeping guards. Lippi's rendition of this scene is celebrated for its dynamic composition, emotional depth, and the masterful use of chiaroscuro to enhance the dramatic effect of the divine intervention. The work showcases Lippi's skill in blending narrative clarity with intricate details and his ability to convey complex human emotions, reflecting the influence of his father, Fra Filippo Lippi, and his mentor, Sandro Botticelli.

"St. Peter Freed from Prison" stands as a testament to Filippino Lippi's mastery of fresco technique and his contribution to the development of Renaissance art. The fresco not only continues the thematic and stylistic legacy of his predecessors in the Brancacci Chapel but also introduces Lippi's own innovations, making it a pivotal work in the transition from the early to the high Renaissance. Through this masterpiece, Lippi has left an indelible mark on the history of art, influencing subsequent generations of artists and contributing to the chapel's reputation as a "school of the world" for its profound impact on Renaissance aesthetics and religious art.
