Portrait of Johann the Steadfast
Artist: Lucas Cranach the Elder (Italian, 1472 - 1553)
Original Dimensions: 16 1/4" x 12 1/4"
Location: National Gallery of Art, London
About Artwork: (1509) "Johann the Steadfast, Elector of Saxony from 1525 to 1532, would have been about 38 when this portrait was made. He wears a sumptuous black hat and coat, both decorated with gold thread and seed pearls. This panel is part of a diptych (a painting made of two parts) – the conjoining panel depicts Johann’s son, Johann Friedrich the Magnanimous. Traditionally, portrait diptychs would show a man and his wife, or a recently engaged couple, but Johann’s wife, Sophie of Mecklenburg, had died in childbirth. Cranach painted Johann the Steadfast’s portrait many times throughout the Elector’s life, but this is one of few surviving individual portraits of Johann the Steadfast from before his reign as elector; the other representations are of Johann with his brother, Friedrich the Wise." - (National Gallery of Art, London)
