About the book

This book celebrates the work of Albrecht Dürer, one of the greatest artists of the Northern Renaissance. Dürer was admired not only as a painter but also as an exceptional draughtsman and printmaker whose woodcuts and engravings achieved extraordinary levels of detail and technical skill. The book surveys his religious subjects, portraits, studies of nature and famous graphic works, showing how he combined Northern European traditions with ideas absorbed from the Italian Renaissance. It offers an excellent introduction to the range and originality of an artist whose influence extended across European art.
