Am not familiar with this version of Katherina -- what's the date of it?

1525. By Lucas Cranach the Elder (isn't he a *swoonsome* painter?? You should see his Venuses...) More here:

Oh goodness, I do know it, I just didn't recognise it without it being next to the one of Luther! hah, how pathetic. Am tres dumb on art history -- if there's anyone I know it's Lucas Cranach der Aelter, but apparently not that well... hee, but yes, lovely.
