Brief Description

Bust-length portrait of a bearded man in a dark hat and fur-lined coat, with text

Detailed Description

A vertical rectangular image depicts a bust-length portrait of a man in the upper half, set against a light blue-green background. The man has a full, curly white-grey beard and mustache, dark eyes, and a fair complexion. He wears a dark, flat cap with a slight brim, and a dark, fur-lined coat over a white shirt with a ruffled collar. His gaze is directed slightly to the right. In the upper right corner, a small rectangular brown panel contains black German text that reads: "Friederich der Dritt / Churf. / zu Sachßen." To the left of the man's head, the year "1533" is written in black, with a small, stylized symbol below it. The lower half of the image features a dark, almost black, rectangular area. Centered within this dark area is a larger, rectangular brown panel with black German text. The text reads: "Friederich bin ich billich genant Schönen fried ich erzeig im land. Durch gros verunruhigunge und glück Wider manchen erzeigten stück. Das land ich zieret mit gebew Und Stifft zu hohe Schul auffs new, Zu Wittenberg im Sachßen land In der welt die ward bekand Denn aus der fellt ein Gottes wort Und thut gros ding an manchem ort. Das Bäpstlich Reich hörts es nicht Und bracht rechten glauben wider. Zum Kaisar ward erförn ich Des mein alter beschweret sich. Dafür ich viel erlitten Von dem mir, weg, trennt zeugt noch gelt."
