EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving depicts Cardinal Albrecht of Brandenburg, a prominent figure in the 16th century religious and political landscape. The intricate details of his costume and regal hat showcase the opulence associated with high-ranking clergy during this period. Cardinal Albrecht served as both Elector and Archbishop of Mainz, holding significant power within the Catholic Church. His portrait reflects not only his religious role but also his influence in secular affairs, highlighting the close connection between church and state at that time. The artist behind this remarkable print is Albrecht Durer or Duerer, a renowned German painter and printmaker known for his exceptional skill in capturing human likeness. This particular image was created after Durer's original work by an unknown artist for Georg Hirth's Kulturgeschichtliches Bilderbuch aus drei Jahrhunderten (Cultural History Picture Book from Three Centuries), published between 1881-1890. Through this digitally cleaned image, we are transported back to a pivotal moment in European history when religion played a central role in shaping society. Cardinal Albrecht's portrait serves as a testament to the grandeur of Catholicism during the late 16th century while offering us insight into Germany's cultural heritage.
