Books By Teresa Präauer, Lucas Cranach - Author

LUCAS CRANACH the Elder (1472-1553) was one of the most prolific painters, graphic artists, and letterpress printers of the German Renaissance. Court painter at the court of the Elector of Saxony since 1505, he devoted himself not only to religious works but also to mythological themes and numerous portraits.

The writer TERESA PRÄAUER (*1979) studied German literature in Salzburg and Berlin as well as art at Mozarteum Salzburg. She writes novels, essays, and columns. In her tragic-comical artist novel Johnny und Jean (Wallstein, 2016), the painter Cranach played a crucial role.
