Albrecht D?er: Art and Autobiography (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781789147643)

An exploration of the life and works of German artist Albrecht D?er and his self-obsession.

The Italian Renaissance birthed the modern sense of self, and no artist from the period compares with Albrecht D?er (1471-1528) in terms of the almost obsessive interest he displayed in his own life. D?er's works are filled with personal details from his day-to-day, his dreams, and his escapades. In this brief biography, David Ekserdjian explores D?er'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.
