Anotace
Albrecht Durer (1471-1528) was an artist of the Northern
Renaissance, remarkable for the range and versatility of his work.
His woodcuts and engravings made him famous throughout Europe and
he is still one of the most brilliant printmakers of all time. As
an oil painter , Durer was equally successful at religious and
secular subjects, producing magnificent altarpieces and powerful
portraits. His drawings and watercolours are impressive for the
diversity of their subject matter and the varied media in which
they were produced. The son of a Hungarian goldsmith, Durer grew up
in Nuremberg, a town half-way between the Netherlands and Italy,
and he found inspiration in the work of painters of both these
major artistic centres of his time. But rather dm simply imitating
what others were doing, Durer was very much an innovator; he is the
first artist who is known to have painted a self-portrait and to
have done a landscape painting of a specific scene. This book
contains some of his best loved works, including The Young Hare and
Praying Hands.
