Lucas Cranach the Elder

National Gallery of Art

This print shows a man's head and shoulders in a three-quarter view, facing the left. He has deep-set eyes, a furrowed brow, and a long nose. The man has curly hair, a wavy beard parted down the middle, and a long, curling mustache. He is wearing a loose-fitting, high-necked garment. There are abstract cloud-like formations in the background, and the print is contained in a rectangular outline. Above it are several lines of text.
