The Infatuated Old Woman 1522

Lucas Cranach the Elder's "The Infatuated Old Woman," painted in 1522, is a portrait depicting an older woman with an exaggerated, toothless grin, her hand resting on the arm of a younger man. The painting is currently housed in the Budapest Museum of Fine Arts. This work exemplifies Cranach's signature style, characterized by bold colors and expressive figures. The playful and satirical nature of the subject matter, a reflection of the artist's interest in depicting human foibles, has made the painting a notable piece in Cranach's oeuvre.
