Lucas Cranach II

Lucas Cranach the Younger was a German painter of the mid-16th century. He is known as a Renaissance painter and portraitist, one of the sons of the painter and graphic artist Lucas Cranach the Elder.

Cranach the Younger painted portraits and paintings of the mythological genre. Despite his lack of courtly status, he worked for the social elite, including princes and nobles. After the artist's death, his works were distributed to various churches, schools, castles and homes. As a member of the new generation, he favored rich and flamboyant images. Cranach the Younger is believed to have created a new artistic program for the Protestants.
