About Lucas Cranach
The paintings by Lucas Cranach gathered on Paintale span portrait, a set of concerns typical of an artist working through the Renaissance period. Taken as a group, they show a consistent visual language rather than a series of unrelated commissions.
Museums now holding Lucas Cranach's work include Cleveland Museum of Art. On each painting's page here, we go beyond the caption to cover subject, symbolism, technique, and provenance — the context a modern viewer needs to see what the original audience saw.
