EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning portrait print captures the regal and dignified presence of Frederick III, Elector of Saxony, in exquisite detail. Created by the renowned artist Albrecht Dürer in 1524, this copper engraving showcases Frederick's commanding gaze and noble demeanor.
Frederick III, also known as Frederick the Wise, ruled over Saxony during a tumultuous period in German history. As a key figure in the Protestant Reformation, he played a crucial role in protecting Martin Luther and supporting the spread of Lutheran ideas throughout his territory.
Dürer's masterful technique brings out every intricate detail of Frederick's attire and features, from his elaborate clothing to his expressive facial expression. The fine lines and shading used in this portrait highlight Dürer's skill as an artist and capture the essence of Frederick's character with remarkable precision.
Displayed in a private collection, this print serves as a timeless reminder of Frederick III's legacy as a wise ruler and patron of the arts. It is not just a work of art but also a historical document that offers insight into the political and cultural landscape of Renaissance Germany.
Overall, this portrait print is a testament to both Dürer's artistic talent and Frederick III's enduring influence on European history.
