EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait, created by the renowned German painter Lucas Cranach the Elder in 1532-1533, depicts John of Saxony (1468-1532), also known as "John the Constant" or "John the Steadfast," who served as the Elector of Saxony from 1525 until his death. The portrait was painted during the height of the Reformation, a period of significant religious and political upheaval in Europe. John of Saxony was a key figure in the spread of Lutheranism in Germany. He was a constant and steadfast leader, who played a crucial role in the establishment of the Lutheran Church in his electorate. His strong commitment to the new faith earned him the nickname "John the Constant." In the portrait, John is depicted wearing a simple cap and a fur-trimmed robe, with a long, flowing beard that adds to his distinguished appearance. His face is characterized by strong, determined features, reflecting his unwavering leadership and conviction. The painting, now housed in the German Historical Museum in Berlin, is a testament to the enduring influence of John of Saxony on German history and the Protestant Reformation. Lucas Cranach the Elder, a contemporary of Martin Luther, was a leading artist of the German Renaissance. His portraits, including this one of John of Saxony, are renowned for their lifelike depictions and their ability to capture the essence of their subjects. This portrait of John of Saxony is a prime example of Cranach's skill and artistic vision, and a valuable addition to the historical record of the Protestant Reformation in Germany.
