"Portrait of Martin Luther" is a notable work by the German Renaissance artist Lucas Cranach the Elder, who was a close friend and supporter of Martin Luther, the seminal figure of the Protestant Reformation. This portrait is one of several depictions Cranach created of Luther throughout their long-standing friendship, and it serves not only as a work of art but also as a historical document of the Reformation period.

The painting is executed in oil on panel, a common medium for the time, and it showcases Cranach's skill in portraiture, capturing the likeness and character of his subject with a high degree of realism. The portrait typically features Luther in a three-quarter view, wearing the traditional black robe of a university professor or a preacher, which became emblematic of his position as a leader of the Reformation and a symbol of his defiance against the Catholic Church's ecclesiastical dress.

Cranach's portraits of Luther are significant for their role in shaping the public image of the reformer. Through the distribution of these portraits, Luther's visage became widely recognized, and Cranach's artistry played a key part in the spread of Reformation ideas. The portraits often included symbolic elements, such as books or inscriptions, which further emphasized Luther's scholarly and religious contributions.

The exact date of the "Portrait of Martin Luther" varies among the different versions Cranach produced, with some created during Luther's lifetime and others posthumously. These portraits are housed in various museums and collections around the world, attesting to their enduring historical and artistic value.

As a testament to Cranach's close relationship with Luther and his pivotal role in the Reformation, the "Portrait of Martin Luther" remains an iconic representation of the reformer and an important piece of Reformation art. Its significance extends beyond its aesthetic qualities, providing insight into the religious, cultural, and social changes of the time.
