. This print captures a momentous event in history - The Luther Celebration. Created by Lucas Cranach the Younger and beautifully preserved in this engraving, it transports us back to a time when Martin Luther's influence reshaped Europe. In this image, we witness various memorials dedicated to Luther's legacy. Among them lies a striking memorial medal, showcasing his noble face alongside that of Junker George, symbolizing their joint efforts in championing the Protestant reform movement.
