Alongside the rather formulaic printed portraits from Augsburg and Nuremberg publishers, which focused primarily on the prince’s military role, finely observed portraits, physiognomic studies and caricatures were also produced during Heinrich’s lifetime, created using pencil, pen and pastels.

In her lecture, Claudia Sommer, curator of the Print Collection, will present the most interesting examples.
