Exactly five hundred years ago, Albrecht Dürer’s legendary journey (1520-1521) through the Netherlands came to an end. Because the artist kept a meticulous diary, this interesting journey has been extensively documented. In the report, Dürer carefully noted not only all costs and expenses, but also the numerous gifts he received. During his stay, Antwerp was his base of operations. From the Scheldt city, the Nuremberger visited several other cities, including Ghent, Bruges, Brussels, Mechelen, Aachen – where he attended the coronation of Charles V – and Cologne. He had many interesting encounters there: with fellow artists, princes, merchants from Northern and Southern Europe and also scholars, such as Erasmus.
With a fascinating contribution by Till-Holger Borchert and short, clear comments on the works, this richly illustrated public catalog provides a complete picture of Dürer’s journey.
This book contains more than one hundred and forty paintings, prints, drawings and sculptures by Dürer as well as by the artists he met on his journey, who inspired him and who were influenced by him. A must-have for anyone who loves Dürer.IN DUTCH!
