Dürer: Portraits, Prints and Promo

Detail

Dürer was a game-changer for the Northern Renaissance. He was the most skilled engraver Europe had ever seen and had a better understanding of the power of self-promotion than any previous European artist. His fierce intellect sits him alongside the greatest philosophers of the time. A legend in the world of art history, he rocked the late 15th and early 16th-century art world to its core. In this talk, we’ll be looking at his astonishing etchings as well as those famous self-portraits.
