Albrecht Dürer
38 pieces 2 collections Nuremberg, Holy Roman Empire
A goldsmith's son from Nuremberg who carried Italian ideas north and turned woodcut and engraving into high art. He drew a hare or a clump of grass with the same care as a saint or an emperor, marked nearly everything with his AD monogram, and sold his own prints across Europe. The pieces here are in the public domain, from museums that share their collections openly.
