- Life and work of Lucas Cranach the Elder- Renaissance in Germany - Third volume of the A-Z series - Life and work of Lucas Cranach the Elder- Renaissance in Germany - Third volume of the A-Z series

Lucas Cranach the Elder created around 500 works during his lifetime. With his portraits of Martin Luther and Philipp Melanchton and as court painter to Frederick the Wise, he became one of the most sought-after painters of the Reformation. At the same time, Cranach was the first to translate the Italian Renaissance tradition of the life-size nude into art north of the Alps; his lascivious, barely veiled depiction of Venus, the goddess of love, bears witness to this. On the occasion of the large Cranach exhibition at the Kunsthistorisches Museum in Vienna, the Austrian writer Teresa Präauer explores the work of this busy prince of painters from A to Z. She does not only focus on the life-size nude, but also on the work of the artist himself. She focuses not only on Cranach's art, but also on the society that surrounded him, the subjects he painted, and the events that shaped his development.

LUCAS CRANACH the Elder (1472 1553) was one of the most prolific painters, graphic artists and letterpress printers of the German Renaissance. Court painter at the court of the Elector of Saxony since 1505, he devoted himself not only to religious works but also to mythological themes and numerous portraits.

TERESA PRÄAUER (*1979) studied German literature and fine arts in Salzburg and Berlin. In addition to writing, she also practices as a visual artist, illustrator, and columnist. Her most recent novel, Das Glück ist eine Bohne, was published in 2021.
