d.April 6, 1528, Nernberg
Albrecht Durer (May 21, 1471 ?C April 6, 1528) was a German painter, printmaker and theorist from Nuremberg. His still-famous works include the Apocalypse woodcuts, Knight, Death, and the Devil (1513), Saint Jerome in his Study (1514) and Melencolia I (1514), which has been the subject of extensive analysis and interpretation. His watercolours mark him as one of the first European landscape artists, while his ambitious woodcuts revolutionized the potential of that medium. D??rer introduction of classical motifs into Northern art, through his knowledge of Italian artists and German humanists, have secured his reputation as one of the most important figures of the Northern Renaissance. This is reinforced by his theoretical treatise which involve principles of mathematics, perspective and ideal proportions.
His prints established his reputation across Europe when he was still in his twenties, and he has been conventionally regarded as the greatest artist of the Renaissance in Northern Europe ever since. |

1495 Pen, 283 x 423 mm Mus?e Bonnat, Bayonne This copy of a (lost) engraving by Antonio Pollaiuolo shows the lunge position in front and back view. The important element for D?rer was not the mere representation of the activity, but the basic Italian method of rendering articulation of the body. D?rer allowed himself freedom in individual details. He was surely not able to borrow from his original the manner in which the modeling lines follow the form, and the contour also has become gnarled in D?rer's fashion. The rear view of the male nude recurs in the engraving "Jealousy.'Artist:D?RER, Albrecht Title: Abduction of a Woman Painted in 1501-1550 , German - - graphics : study |
