Portrait of Lucas Cranach the Elder is a 1550 oil on panel portrait of Lucas Cranach the Elder. It is inscribed "Aetatis Suae LXXVII". It is held in the Uffizi, in Florence, where it entered as a self-portrait, but was later re-attributed as a painting by his son, Lucas Cranach the Younger, due to stylistic reasons.[1] It is still in the Uffizi, whilst a copy of it with some variants is now in the Staatkirche in Weimar.
