Within 16 detailed essays, various aspects of Cranach research are covered. They show a selection of results from working with the database www.cranach.net, including four reattributions of portraits previously considered as early works by Cranach. Working with this digital research database has yielded countless other new findings, which are documented within extensive digital dossiers of the works in the CORPUS CRANACH catalog raisonné. The volume of essays aims to build a bridge to new methods of digital art history, which enable a considerable acceleration of the scientific discourse and, consequently, a faster gain of knowledge.
