The painting, created by Lucas Cranach the Elder (1472-1553), is a masterpiece of Renaissance art and is now housed in the esteemed collection at Veste Coburg in Germany. George the Bearded exudes an air of authority and wisdom with his regal bearing and well-groomed beard, which became his defining feature. His piercing gaze seems to penetrate through time, leaving viewers captivated by his presence.
