EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an engraving of Martin Luther, created by Daniel Hopfer in 1523. The artwork is housed at the Yale University Art Gallery in New Haven, CT, USA. The engraving is based on a painting by Lucas Cranach the Elder and depicts Martin Luther (1483-1546), a renowned German theologian and key figure in the Protestant Reformation. In this powerful image, we see Luther's head and shoulders captured with great detail and precision. As a reformer, he played a pivotal role in challenging the corruption within the Catholic Church during his time. On October 31st, 1517, Luther famously nailed his ninety-five theses to the door of a Wittenberg church as an act of protest against papal sale of indulgences. This bold move ultimately led to his excommunication by Pope Leo X in 1521. Luther's portrait reflects both his religious devotion as well as his determination to bring about change within Christianity. Dressed as a monk, he symbolizes his commitment to faith while also representing the struggles faced by those who sought reform during this period. This remarkable artwork serves as a reminder of Luther's significant impact on history and religion. It captures not only his profile but also embodies the spirit of defiance that characterized him throughout his life.
