In 2016, Magdaléna Nespěšná Hamsíková published her monograph Lucas Cranach and the Art of Painting in Bohemia (1500–1550), covering the reception of Lucas Cranach in the Lands of the Bohemian Crown. Shortly after the publication of her monograph, certain new findings and connections have surfaced that require the topic of Cranach and Bohemia to be reopened. Most importantly, it now appears that one of the most important works of Cranach’s career, the painting Law and Grace (National Gallery in Prague) was commissioned in Bohemia or Moravia, or reached here shortly after it was created. This is suggested primarily by the thematic concept of the artwork, which was met with a weak response in the German Lutheran milieu. In contrast, the composition was very well received in the religiously diversified community of the Lands of the Bohemian Crown, especially in circles influenced by Utraquism. It is among these that we would look for the donor of the painting.
