This article incorporates text from the Encyclopædia Britannica Eleventh Edition, a publication now in the public domain. Wouldn't it be worth having some more information about Cranach's work with Luther in so much of the early Reformation? -Cranach's images of Luther of 1520, 1521 and as Junker Jorg in 1522. -The Passional Christi und Antichrist series of woodcuts -The September Testament These were all, after all, important images which contributed in part to the reception the Reformation received, and it seems lacking in Cranach to omit a section of his life which influenced so much later Lutheran iconography in its depiction of Luther and its antipapal themes.
