The Lutheran Museum at Wittenberg has a late copy of this picture, which according to local tradition represents Luther's daughter, Magdalena. However, scholars in the 20th century expressed the opinion that this could not be the case, because the child was born in 1529, and this picture could not be dated later than the 1520s, for stylistic reasons. This opinion is not universally accepted.
