EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a captivating woodcut titled "Legend of Martin Luther" by the German School in the 16th century. Housed in the Bibliotheque de la Societe de l'Histoire du Protestantisme Francais in Paris, France, this historic artwork depicts the life and influence of Martin Luther (1483-1546), a renowned German theologian and religious reformer. Intriguingly, Luther is portrayed here as a devil-like figure with horns, symbolizing the controversy surrounding his teachings. This powerful image serves as both propaganda and commentary on his perceived heresy and doctrinal challenges to established beliefs. The woodcut captures Luther's pivotal role in sparking the Protestant Reformation through his critique of Catholic practices and emphasis on biblical authority. It reflects how he was excommunicated from the Church for challenging its doctrines, ultimately leading to the formation of Protestantism. With meticulous detail, this half-length portrait highlights Luther's monkish appearance while incorporating demonic elements that suggest satanic influences. The presence of a book signifies his theological writings that challenged traditional interpretations. This thought-provoking artwork sheds light on an important chapter in religious history - one that forever altered Christianity. It invites contemplation about faith, doctrine, and individual interpretation within religion itself. As we gaze upon this intriguing woodcut print, we are reminded of Luther's enduring impact on theology and religious orders worldwide.
