Dürer's works are filled with personal details from his day-to-day, his dreams, and his escapades. In this brief biography, David Ekserdjian explores Dürer's life and times--his studies, travels, and influences--as well as his paintings, drawings, and prints. This book is essential reading for anyone interested in Renaissance or Northern European art.Renaissance Lives SeriesSelf-portraitsGenerated by AIArtistsGermanyGenerated by AISelf-portraitsArtistsEkserdjian David439248MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9911008959603321Albrecht Dürer: Art and Autobiography4393513UNINA
