Albrecht Durer

b.May 21, 1471, Imperial Free City of Nernberg [Germany] 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.

Albrecht Durer Study of the Christ Child oil


Study of the Christ Child
Painting ID::  63674 		Study of the Christ Child
1495 Pen drawing, 172 x 215 mm Mus?e du Louvre, Paris D?rer's pen drawing of a Christ Child is based on a design by the Florentine painter Lorenzo di Credi, which the latter made use of in several works, and it may have been used as a preliminary study for his Virgin and Child (Magnani Collection, Mamiano near Parma). Although the body posture and gestures differ, the types of faces of the two Infant Christs in the painting and drawing are comparable.Artist:D?RER, Albrecht Title: Study of the Christ Child Painted in 1501-1550 , German - - graphics : study
   
   
     
Albrecht Durer Abduction of a Woman oil


Abduction of a Woman
Painting ID::  63675 		Abduction of a Woman
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

Caspar Sturm
Painting ID::  63678 		Caspar Sturm
1520 Silverpoint, 127 x 189 mm Mus?e Cond? Chantilly This is a leaf from the sketchbook of the trip to the Lowlands. The legend reads: "1520 Caspar Sturm alt 45 Jor zw ach gemacht" (1520, Caspar Sturm, 45 years old, done at Aix-la-Chapelle [Aachen]). The lighting is peculiar, the landscape is related to the portrait. It is conjectured that the word "toll" indicates a tollhouse. The drawing is mentioned in the journal of the trip to the Lowlands: "Ich hob den Sturm conterfet" (I did a portrait of Sturm).Artist:D?RER, Albrecht Title: Caspar Sturm Painted in 1501-1550 , German - - graphics : portrait
