Martin Luther

About this work

This is a black-and-white portrait of a man with a serious expression. He’s wearing a dark hat, a white collar, and a layered robe. His hands are clasped in front of him, and the lines on his face are sharply drawn. The name "Martinus Lutherus" is written at the bottom, along with "Anno Aetatis 57," which likely means he was 57 years old. The style looks old-fashioned, almost like it was copied from an earlier time. If you like this style, look up engraving to see how artists create detailed prints like this.
