Albrecht Dürer

After a visit to the Rally Grounds we continued with our early afternoon morbid theme and visited a beautiful cemetery where Albrecht Dürer and other famous people are buried in Nuremberg. Dürer was a German painter, engraver, printmaker,mathematician, and theorist from Nuremberg. His high-quality woodcuts (nowadays often called Meisterstiche or “master prints”) established his reputation and influence across Europe when he was still in his twenties, and he has been conventionally regarded as the greatest artist of the Northern Renaissance ever since. We are yet to visit his house which is close to the Imperial Castle but that too will come soon.
