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 Lamentation over Christ painting


Lamentation over Christ
Lamentation over Christ
Painting ID::  63630
   1507 Engraving, 115 x 71 mm Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York Sheet No. 12 of the Engraved Passion. Also called Descent from the Cross, this is the first of D?rer's engravings after his return from Italy. It is not yet appreciably different in style from those of 1504/05. The Lamentation over Christ is the earliest of the plates of the Engraved Passion and considerably weaker than the other subjects of that series. It suffers from D?rer's preoccupation during this period with the arrangement of limbs. The position of Christ's legs is similar to that of the Infant Christ's in the painting The Brotherhood of the Rosary. D?rer could not have thought of an entire series of Passion subjects at that time, otherwise he would have begun with the Agony in the Garden. In contrast to the other subjects which were to follow, the background of this engraving is white.Artist:D?RER, Albrecht Title: Lamentation over Christ (No. 12) Painted in 1501-1550 , German - - graphics : religious
