"Henry Duke of Saxony 1473-1541" is a portrait painting by the German Renaissance artist Lucas Cranach the Elder. The artwork, dated to the early 16th century, depicts Henry IV, Duke of Saxony, who was a member of the House of Wettin and a notable figure in the politics of the Holy Roman Empire during his time. Cranach, who served as a court painter to the Electors of Saxony, was renowned for his portraits of nobility, which were characterized by their detailed representation and insight into the sitters' personalities.

The painting is executed in oil on panel, a common medium for the period, and showcases Cranach's skill in capturing the opulence and authority of his subject through the use of rich colors, intricate clothing details, and heraldic symbols. Henry IV is typically depicted in a three-quarter length pose, wearing the regalia appropriate to his status, and with an expression that conveys both his nobility and the responsibilities of his position.

As a significant work by Lucas Cranach the Elder, "Henry Duke of Saxony 1473-1541" is an important example of portraiture from the Northern Renaissance. It not only provides art historical value but also offers insights into the cultural and political context of the time. The painting is often studied for its stylistic elements, which reflect the transition from the late Gothic to the Renaissance style in Northern Europe.

The portrait is held in high regard for its historical significance and is part of the collection of notable museums or galleries, where it is accessible to the public for viewing and scholarly study. As with many of Cranach's works, this portrait contributes to our understanding of the visual culture of the 16th century and the role of art in the representation of political power.
