Early Bourgeois Revolution in Germany, also known as the Peasants' War Panorama, is a monumental painting by the East German painter Werner Tübke, executed from 1976 to 1987. It spans 14 metres by 123 metres is the main attraction of the Panorama Museum, built specifically to house it, in Bad Frankenhausen, Thuringia.Despite being commissioned by the East German government to commemorate the Battle of Frankenhausen, fought on 15 May 1525 during the German Peasants' War, the painting is not a typical battle painting, nor in the style of socialist realism prevalent at the time. Instead, Werner Tübke created an immense allegory of Renaissance society with more than 3000 characters, containing strong fantastical and surreal elements. The artist named German Renaissance painters Albrecht Dürer and Lucas Cranach the Elder as his most important influences; his style is sometimes also considered as magical realism.
