EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the profound piety and devotion of Albert, Cardinal Elector of Mainz, as he kneels at the foot of the Cross. Painted by Lucas Cranach, the Elder in oil on panel, this masterpiece is housed in the Alte Pinakothek in Munich, Germany. Albert von Brandenburg (1490-1545), a patron of the arts and close friend of Erasmus, is depicted here in profile. His role as a cardinal elector and his controversial actions during the Reformation are well-known. Notably, Albert employed Johann Tetzel to sell indulgences which sparked anger from Martin Luther and led to Luther's famous ninety-five treatises. In this portrait, we witness Cardinal Albert's deep connection with his faith. The crucifixion scene behind him serves as a powerful reminder of Jesus Christ's sacrifice for humanity. The stigmata wounds on Christ's hands further emphasize both his suffering and divine nature. The composition exudes solemnity and reverence through its skillful use of light and shadow. Cranach masterfully captures every detail - from Cardinal Albert's somber expression to his posture conveying humility before God. This image not only showcases an exceptional work of art but also provides insight into one man's complex role during a time of religious upheaval. It invites contemplation on themes such as faith, power dynamics within the Catholic Church, and personal spirituality amidst turbulent times.
