Lucas Cranach the Elder created around 500 works during his
lifetime. With his portraits of Martin Luther and Philipp
Melanchton and as court painter to Frederick the Wise, he became
one of the most sought-after painters of the Reformation. At the
same time, Cranach was the first to translate the Italian
Renaissance tradition of the life-size nude into art north of the
Alps; his lascivious, barely veiled depiction of Venus, the goddess
of love, bears witness to this. On the occasion of the large
Cranach exhibition at the Kunsthistorisches Museum in Vienna, the
Austrian writer Teresa Praauer explores the work of this busy
prince of painters from A to Z. She focuses not only on Cranach's
art, but also on the society that surrounded him, the subjects he
painted, and the events that shaped his development.
