Frederick The Wise, Elector Of Saxony (b.104; M., Holl.102) is a notable engraving by the renowned German Renaissance artist Albrecht Dürer. Created in 1524, this work exemplifies Dürer's exceptional skill in the medium of engraving, a technique that involves incising a design onto a hard surface, typically metal, to produce prints. The subject of the engraving, Frederick III, known as Frederick the Wise, was the Elector of Saxony from 1486 until his death in 1525. Frederick is a significant historical figure, particularly noted for his role in the early Reformation and his protection of Martin Luther after Luther was declared an outlaw by the Holy Roman Empire.

Dürer's engraving captures Frederick the Wise with remarkable detail and precision, showcasing the artist's mastery in rendering textures and expressions. The portrait is characterized by its intricate lines and the depth of shading, which together create a lifelike representation of Frederick. Dürer’s ability to convey the texture of Frederick’s garments, the fur collar, and the intricate details of his facial features, including his contemplative expression, highlights the artist's technical prowess and his keen observation skills.

The engraving is also significant for its historical context. Frederick the Wise was a patron of the arts and a supporter of the Renaissance humanist movement, which aligns with Dürer's own intellectual and artistic pursuits. The portrait not only serves as a testament to Frederick's status and influence but also reflects the broader cultural and intellectual currents of the time.

Dürer's depiction of Frederick the Wise is more than a mere portrait; it is a work that encapsulates the intersection of art, politics, and history during a pivotal period in European history. The engraving remains an important piece within Dürer's oeuvre and continues to be studied and admired for its artistic and historical significance.
