EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a self-portrait of the renowned German artist and engraver, Albrecht Dürer. Created in the year 1527, when Dürer was in his late fifties, this profile view offers a glimpse into the face of a man whose artistic genius left an indelible mark on the history of Western art. Born in Nuremberg in 1471, Dürer's prodigious talent was evident from an early age. He is considered one of the first European artists to achieve a wide European reputation and to be regarded as both a painter and a printmaker. His works, characterized by their meticulous detail and innovative composition, spanned various genres, including portraits, landscapes, and religious themes. In this self-portrait, Dürer's short, straight hair and full beard frame a face that exudes intelligence and determination. The artist's piercing gaze and the intricately detailed collar add depth and texture to the image. The profile view, a departure from the more common three-quarter or full-face portraits of the time, underscores Dürer's innovative spirit and his willingness to experiment with new techniques. This print, a testament to Dürer's mastery of the art of engraving, stands as a reminder of the enduring influence of this extraordinary artist. His groundbreaking works continue to captivate and inspire generations of artists and art lovers alike.
