"The Death of Gustavus Adolphus at Lutzen" is an illustration from the historical adventure novel "The Lion of the North: A Tale of the Times of Gustavus Adolphus and the Wars of Religion" by English author G.A. Henty. The novel, which was first published in London, is a work of historical fiction that aims to bring the tumultuous period of the Thirty Years' War (1618–1648) to life through the story of its Swedish Protestant hero, King Gustavus Adolphus. The illustration depicts the dramatic and pivotal moment of King Gustavus Adolphus's death at the Battle of Lützen on November 6, 1632, an event that significantly impacted the course of the war.

The artist behind the illustration, Johann Nepomuk Schönberg, contributed to the visual storytelling of Henty's work by capturing the intensity and emotion of the battlefield. Schönberg's depiction serves not only as a narrative device within the book but also as a historical representation of the king's demise, which has been a subject of interest and artistic interpretation over the centuries.

G.A. Henty's novels were known for their educational value, combining exciting adventure with historical facts, and were particularly popular among young readers during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. "The Lion of the North" is no exception, as it immerses readers in the political and religious conflicts of the era through a gripping narrative. The illustration of Gustavus Adolphus's death is a key element of the book, providing a visual anchor for one of the most significant moments in the story and in European history.
