Word and Image: Martin Luther's Reformation
October 7, 2016 - January 22, 2017 - This exhibition explores how the Reformation was launched and propagated through Luther’s strategic use of media: printed books, prints, paintings, and music.
Exceptional highlights include one of the five existing printed copies of the Ninety-Five Theses, nearly forty paintings, prints, and drawings by Lucas Cranach the Elder, Luther’s manuscript draft of his Old Testament translation, Conrad Meit's exquisite statues of Adam and Eve, and over thirty of Luther’s most important publications and the ones that led the pope to excommunicate Luther and make him the most successful heretic in history.
