German Renaissance artist Albrecht Dürer (1471-1528) was a versatile artist who was at once a printmaker, painter, theorist and publisher. Born in Nuremburg, Germany, he began to travel to Italy and France in his 20s, and to the Low Countries years later. These experiences significantly shaped his artistic education and world view. This focused exhibition of prints, books and paintings draws from the Huntington's collections and features 24 works created during and following his travels to Italy and beyond.
