{"product_id":"saint-peter-lucas-cranach-the-younger","title":"Saint Peter - Lucas Cranach the Younger","description":"\u003cp\u003eA detailed woodcut by Lucas Cranach the Younger depicting Saint Peter in a scholarly, domestic interior.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis woodcut depicts Saint Peter in a domestic setting, engaged in scholarly activity. The artist, Lucas Cranach the Younger, follows the workshop traditions established by his father, Lucas Cranach the Elder, in Wittenberg. The composition reflects the Reformation-era shift toward humanising religious figures by placing them within recognisable, contemporary interiors. Peter is shown seated at a desk, his traditional attribute of the keys visible at his waist, while he focuses on a manuscript.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe technical execution demonstrates the precision characteristic of German printmaking during the mid-sixteenth century. The artist employs a system of parallel hatching and cross-hatching to define the volume of the figure and the architectural elements of the room. The tiled floor, the leaded glass window, and the coffered ceiling provide a sense of spatial depth, typical of the period's interest in perspective. Objects on the desk, including a lidded tankard and additional volumes, suggest a quiet, contemplative atmosphere.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCranach the Younger maintained the workshop's output of religious prints, which were widely distributed to support the theological discourse of the time. The lines are clean and deliberate, allowing for the clear reproduction of the image across multiple impressions. This print offers a view into the intersection of devotional art and the print culture of the German Renaissance, where the focus remains on the clarity of the subject and the structural integrity of the scene. The figure of Peter is rendered with a sense of gravity, his posture and expression conveying a studious demeanour that aligns with the intellectual climate of the Reformation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top:2rem;padding-top:1.5rem;border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:0.85rem;color:#888;font-weight:600;margin:0 0 0.75rem;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:0.05em;\"\u003eYou might also like\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:0.5rem;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/nativity-martin-schongauer\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eNativity - Martin Schongauer — Martin Schongauer\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/joseph-explaining-pharaohs-dreams-hans-collaert-the-elder\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eJoseph Explaining Pharaoh's Dreams - Hans Collaert the Elder — Hans Collaert the Elder\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Lucas Cranach the Younger","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58666774757711,"sku":null,"price":29.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58666824696143,"sku":null,"price":39.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58666824728911,"sku":null,"price":49.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58666824761679,"sku":null,"price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58666824794447,"sku":null,"price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58666824827215,"sku":null,"price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58666824859983,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58666824892751,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58666824925519,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58666824958287,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58666824991055,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58666825023823,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/Saint-Peter_Poster_CompositorV1_1788511478549.jpg?v=1788512132","url":"https:\/\/www.solisprints.com\/products\/saint-peter-lucas-cranach-the-younger","provider":"Solis Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
