Caspar Hedio Published 1543 Germany. Here Hans Baldung Grien depicted the theologian Caspar Hedio, who may have been a longtime acquaintance of the artist, as an uncompromising individual with an intense gaze. The woodcut appeared as the author portrait in Hedioís Selected Chronicle of the World, from Its Beginnings until the Year 1543. Hedioís furrowed brow, darting eyes, and clenched fingertips reveal his aggressive character, an effect greatly enhanced by the change from the original soft silverpoint drawing to these harsh woodcut lines. A leader of the Protestant Reformation, Hedio had a reputation as a fiery preacher who advocated stridently for expanding the Reformation to unconverted territories..
