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 The Women's Bath oil


The Women's Bath
Painting ID::  63679
The Women's Bath
1496 Pen, 231 x 226 mm Kunsthalle, Bremen Weak in its perspective and not yet quite clear in its representation of forms, this drawing nevertheless possesses significant qualities: a strong feeling for corporeality and for rich configuration. Form is suggested by light, jumping strokes of the pen, with the vagueness typical of the early period. A painterly effect is sought in the darkness of the wall and ceiling, in which the grain of the wood is disproportionately emphasized, as in the art of the primitives.Artist:D?RER, Albrecht Title: The Women's Bath Painted in 1501-1550 , German - - graphics : study

Head of an Apostle Looking Upward
1508 Brush drawing with white highlights on a dark ground, 288 x 207 mm Staatliche Museen, Berlin Study for the Heller Altar. The modern mistrust of any calligraphy in drawing should not be allowed to blind the viewer to the new psychological greatness that such figures introduce into German art.Artist:D?RER, Albrecht Title: Head of an Apostle Looking Upward Painted in 1501-1550 , German - - graphics : study
   
   
     

Albrecht Durer Sebastian Brant oil

Painting ID::  63682
Sebastian Brant
1520 Silverpoint on paper, 194 x 147 mm Staatliche Museen, Berlin The silver point drawing presumably contains a portrait of the Basle legal scholar and humanist Sebastian Brant, created during the journey to the Netherlands. Brant, who had been D?rer's sponsor and client during his stay in Basle, was staying in the Netherlands at the same time as the artist in order to represent the city of Strasbourg at the court of Emperor Charles V. Seen in a three-quarter profile looking to the right, he appears to us as a critical, older gentleman. Though his arms and hands are only sketched in, D?rer concentrated particularly on creating a natural depiction of the face. In about 1520, when the portrait must have been produced, Brant had already gained international fame through his moralizing and satirizing poetic work, the Ship of Fools.Artist:D?RER, Albrecht Title: Sebastian Brant (?)
