EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable portrait of Martin Luther, the influential German priest and professor of theology. Created in 1933 by an unknown artist, this image is based on a 16th-century miniature by Lucas Cranach, a renowned painter from that era. The photograph is featured in "Gestalten Der Weltgeschichte" a book containing cigarette-card portrait miniatures of significant figures throughout history. Martin Luther played a pivotal role in the Protestant Reformation, making him one of the key figures in Christian history. His teachings challenged the established practices and doctrines of the Catholic Church, leading to widespread religious reforms across Europe during the sixteenth century. The circular format and vibrant colors used in this print bring out Luther's commanding presence and intellectual depth. As we gaze upon his visage, we are transported back to Germany in the thirties when this photograph was captured. This print not only serves as a visual tribute to Martin Luther but also represents an important historical artifact from both the twentieth century and the sixteenth century. It reminds us of Luther's enduring legacy as a reformer who fearlessly questioned authority and reshaped religious thought for generations to come.
