Книга: Albrecht Durer (Wolf Norbert); Prestel, 2019

Rediscover the drawings of Albrecht Dьrer, one of the most prominent Renaissance artists, known as an incomparable painter and draughtsman with a keen eye for the natural world.
During his lifetime, Dьrer found tremendous success as a painter and printmaker, taking commissions from prominent figures such as Frederick the Wise and Holy Roman Emperor Maximilian I. His drawings and studies reveal his interest in human proportions, anatomy, and perspective. Featured in this book are Dьrer’s drawings from the Albertina Museum’s preeminent collection including family portraits, studies of animals and plants, and studies of the human body. This book showcases more than 100 of Dьrer’s drawings including Hare, Self Portrait at the Age of 13, and Melencolia I, along with paintings and prints. Featuring scholarly essays and beautifully reproduced works, this book shows the reader not only how important Dьrer’s drawings are to his own oeuvre, but also how he helped drawing become an appreciated medium in its own right.
