Reformers and Protestant Leaders in Christian Art

Portraits of the founders, theologians and preachers of the Protestant Reformation and the later Protestant movements it gave rise to, together with the small number of works that illustrate Reformation-era doctrine directly. Includes Martin Luther, John Calvin, Ulrich Zwingli, Philip Melanchthon, Menno Simons, Archbishop Cranmer, John Knox, John Wesley, George Whitefield and Jonathan Edwards, Lucas Cranach's doctrinal panel Law and Gospel, and a Mennonite quilt whose Broken Star pattern comes from the same Anabaptist Reformation tradition. A portrait of a Catholic or Orthodox church leader belongs to Popes and Church Leaders in Christian Art instead.
