EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the iconic "Portrait of Katharina von Bora, Wife of Martin Luther" by Lucas Cranach the Elder. Created in 1529 using mixed media, this masterpiece measures a mere 10 cm in diameter and is housed at the Kunstmuseum in Basel, Switzerland. Katharina von Bora (1499-1552) was not only known as the wife of Martin Luther but also played a significant role as his steadfast companion during the Reformation movement in Germany. As one of history's most influential couples, their partnership symbolized strength and resilience amidst religious turmoil. In this head and shoulders portrait, Cranach skillfully captures Katharina's grace and poise. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke, highlighting her delicate features with precision. This miniature painting serves as a testament to Cranach's mastery within the Northern Renaissance art movement. The roundel format adds an air of intimacy to this portrayal, allowing viewers to connect with Katharina on a personal level. Her expression exudes both confidence and serenity—a reflection of her unwavering faith and dedication to Christianity. As we delve into this remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images' collection, we are reminded not only of its artistic value but also its historical significance.
