{"product_id":"lucas-cranach-the-elder-hunting-near-hartenfels-castle-fine-art-print","title":"Lucas Cranach the Elder — Hunting near Hartenfels Castle | Fine Art Print","description":"\u003cp\u003eBelow a white castle with red roofs on a hilltop, hounds chase stags out of the forest and into a grey, swirling river. Hunters in striped yellow-and-black and green suits stand among the trees with crossbows, and riders gallop across the clearing behind. In a boat on the river a man in green stripes raises a spear beside women in red, striped and blue dress, one working the paddle. More women with crossbows watch from the right bank, and the date 1540 is painted on the boat.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Cleveland Museum of Art records that the Protestant rulers of Saxony commissioned this hunt, set near their residence, Hartenfels Castle, in eastern Germany. The museum identifies the man in dark green spanning his crossbow at lower left as the Elector John Frederick the Magnanimous, and the woman at right as his wife Sibylle, poised to take the first ceremonial shot. The number 1577 in the corner is an inventory mark.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe original: oil, originally on wood, transferred to masonite, 1540; Cleveland Museum of Art, Cleveland.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLucas Cranach the Elder (c. 1472–1553) was a German Renaissance painter and printmaker, born in Kronach in Franconia. From 1505 he was court painter to the Electors of Saxony at Wittenberg, where his large workshop produced many versions of his pictures. A close friend of Martin Luther, he painted the reformer, his wife and his parents and became the painter of the Reformation, while his slender, elegant nudes of Venus, Lucretia, Eve and the nymphs became his most recognisable subjects. His son Lucas Cranach the Younger carried on the workshop.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach print is made to our \u003ca href=\"\/pages\/archival-museum-standards\"\u003eArchival Museum Standards\u003c\/a\u003e: a 12-ink giclée, printed to order.
