Description
English: Painting showing Martin Luther as reformator. The uncovering of the candle light (at the left) is not only an allusion to the parable of the lamp under a basket (Mt 5:14–15; Mk 4:21–22; Lk 8:16 and 11:33), but also a simile for Luther’s reformation as relevation of the true Gospel. Behind Luther there is a little goose as a symbol for Luther. Jan Hus (Czech husa means “goose”), who was considered as Luther’s precursor, said there would come a swan after the death of the goose (Hus); this dictum was later applied to Luther. This painting is part of the balustrade/parapet of the northern gallery in the Amanduskirche in Beihingen, a district of Freiberg am Neckar (Germany).
Deutsch: Das Tafelbild von Hans Stiegler (18. Jahrhundert) zeigt Martin Luther als Reformator. Die enthüllte Kerze ist nicht nur eine Anspielung auf das Gleichnis vom Licht unter dem Scheffel (Mt 5,14–15; Mk 4,21–22; Lk 8,16 und 11,33), sondern hier auch ein Gleichnis für Luthers Reformation als Enthüllung des wahren Evangeliums. Rechts hinter Luther fügte der Tscheche Stiegler einen Schwan als Symbol für Luther ein. Jan Hus, der als Vorläufer Luthers angesehen wurde, weissagte, dass nach der Gans (tschechisch husa heißt „Gans“) ein Schwan kommen werden; dieser Ausspruch wurde später auf Luther gedeutet. Teil der Balustrade der Nordempore in der Amanduskirche in Beihingen, einem Stadtteil von Freiberg am Neckar.
