Portrait of Johann Stralenberg 1526

Conrad Faber von Kreuznach's "Portrait of Johann Stralenberg" is a 16th-century oil painting that captures the sitter's distinguished presence with meticulous detail. Johann Stralenberg is depicted in a three-quarter-length pose, wearing a fur-trimmed coat and a wide-brimmed hat, a sign of his wealth and status. The artist's attention to texture is evident in the rich, layered details of the fur collar and Stralenberg's clothing. The landscape backdrop adds a touch of realism and offers a glimpse into the world of the sitter. This portrait is a prime example of Northern Renaissance portraiture, showcasing the skill and precision of German artists during this period.
