Beschreibung
Hans Holbein des Jüngeren „Der Kaiser“ ist ein Holzschnitt aus der Serie „Der Totentanz“, der ein Skelett darstellt, das über einem thronenden Kaiser schwebt und die Betrachter an die Universalität des Todes erinnert.
Dieser Holzschnitt mit dem Titel „Der Kaiser“ ist Teil der Serie „Der Totentanz“ von Hans Holbein dem Jüngeren, die 1538 veröffentlicht wurde. Holbein, ein deutscher Künstler und Drucker, schuf diese kleinformatigen Holzschnitte um 1526, die dann von Hans Lützelburger geschnitten wurden. Die Serie stellt den Tod als eine allgegenwärtige Kraft dar, die Menschen aus allen Gesellschaftsschichten betrifft. Holbein arbeitete hauptsächlich in Basel, Schweiz, und später in England als Hofmaler Heinrichs VIII. Sein Werk zeichnet sich durch Realismus und Detailtreue aus. In diesem Bild sitzt ein Kaiser auf einem Thron, umgeben von Hofleuten. Ein Skelett, das den Tod darstellt, schwebt über ihm, eine Erinnerung an die Reichweite der Sterblichkeit, selbst für diejenigen in Machtpositionen. Die Szene ist mit feinen Linien und sorgfältiger Beachtung der Textur wiedergegeben, typisch für Holbeins Druckstil. Eine Sanduhr und andere Symbole der Sterblichkeit sind zu Füßen des Kaisers platziert. Die Komposition ist sorgfältig ausbalanciert und lenkt das Auge des Betrachters auf die zentrale Figur und die darüber schwebende Skelettpräsenz.

Artist Biography
Hans Holbein The Younger
Holbein painted Henry VIII so convincingly that his image of the king has replaced the actual person in the public imagination. The Whitehall mural, destroyed by fire in 1698, showed Henry standing with his legs apart, hands on hips, filling the frame with physical authority. Everyone who has ever pictured Henry VIII has pictured Holbein's version.
He was born in Augsburg, Germany, the son of a painter also called Hans Holbein. He studied under his father and was working independently by his late teens. He moved to Basel, where he painted portraits and religious works and illustrated Erasmus's In Praise of Folly with marginal drawings. Erasmus recommended him to Thomas More in England, writing that 'the arts are freezing' in Basel and Holbein should try his luck elsewhere.
He arrived in London in 1526 and painted More's family portrait, the first group portrait of a domestic scene in Northern European art. He returned to Basel, found the Reformation had destroyed the market for religious art, and went back to England permanently in 1532.
His portraits of the Tudor court are the visual record of the period: Thomas More, Thomas Cromwell, Anne Boleyn (probably), Jane Seymour, and the succession of courtiers and merchants who populated Henry's orbit. The technique is almost supernaturally precise. The textures of fur, velvet, jewellery, and skin are rendered with a fidelity that makes other portraitists look approximate.
He was sent to paint prospective brides for Henry, including Anne of Cleves, whose portrait Henry found more attractive than the person. Holbein was not blamed. He died during a plague outbreak in London in 1543, at forty-five.
