Albrecht Dürer (1471-1528 CE) was a German Renaissance artist who is considered one of the greatest painters and engravers in history. A native of Nuremberg, Dürer was famous in his own lifetime at home and abroad for his oil paintings, altarpieces, drawings, and engraved prints, as well as for his numerous treatises on art theory. A superb draughtsman with an uncanny eye for detail, Dürer's style blended trends in Italian and Northern European art to push Renaissance art ever further along the road to natural realism.

Jan van Eyck

Jan van Eyck (1390-1441) était un peintre néerlandais de la Renaissance, célèbre de son vivant pour sa maîtrise de la peinture à l'huile, de la coloration, des scènes naturalistes et son sens du détail. Parmi ses chefs-d'œuvre figurent le Retable de Gand de 1432, également connu sous le nom d'Adoration de l'agneau mystique, et Les époux Arnolfini, un tour de force en matière d'illusions d'optique. Pionnier de l'utilisation de l'huile pour obtenir des effets réalistes, son œuvre influença l'art de la Renaissance, mais surtout les artistes italiens de la seconde moitié du XVe siècle.

Albrecht Durer (1471-1528) Saint Jerome/ Santo Jeronimo (1521) oil on oak panel (59.5x48.5 cm) Museu Nacional de Arte Antiga, Lisboa

museudearteantiga.pt

This depiction of St. Jerome is an innovative solution in the iconography and forms of pictorial representation of the patron saint of Christian humanists. The Doctor of the Church is represented here by the powerful, concentrated and synthetic image of an old sage, melancholically meditating on death and the contingency of the human condition and whose gaze reaches out to us and envelops us in this exercise in wisdom.

This masterpiece of the extremely gifted German Renaissance painter, created during his trip to the Low Countries in 1520-1521, was a gift from Dürer to Rui Fernandes de Almada, the secretary of the Portuguese factory house in Antwerp. At the Albertina Gallery (Vienna) and the Museen Dahlem (Berlin), there are four preparatory drawings for this composition.

Albrecht Dürer

German Renaissance painter, printmaker and theorist Albrecht Dürer was born on this day in 1471. Dürer established his reputation and influence across Europe very early on in his life due to his high-quality woodcut prints, and is credited with bringing the Renaissance to Northern Europe. He travelled to Italy a number of times, and was well-acquainted with many of the major Italian artists of his time, including Raphael and Leonardo da Vinci. In 1512, he was appointed court painter to Roman Emperor Maximilian I. This work, called Melencolia I, is one of the most well-known 'master engravings'. Despite being rife with symbolism, it has more or less eluded interpretation. The winged figure is thought to be an embodiment of melancholy, and around her we can see an hourglass, weighing scales, and other tools, as well as a magic square and astrological features. Competing theories suggest it alludes to alchemy, astrology, theology or even philosophy. We'd love to know: what do you see when you look at it? What do you think it could be about? Engraving on laid paper, 1514.

 On the right side of the composition,the artist boldly portrays himself among the saints and patrons (including the Pope and the Emperor) holding a paper that displays the artist's name and the circumstances of the painting's creation: "Exegit quinque mestri / spatio Albertus / Durer Germanus MDVI / AD": "Albrecht Dürer from Germany painted this image within (only) five months in 1506, AD".

Jan van Eyck (c. 1390-1441 CE) was a Netherlandish Renaissance painter who was famous in his own lifetime for his mastery of oil painting, colouring, naturalistic scenes, and eye for detail. Amongst his masterpieces are the 1432 CE Ghent Altarpiece, otherwise known as The Adoration of the Mystic Lamb, and the Arnolfini Wedding Portrait, a tour de force in optical illusions. A pioneer of using oils for realistic effects, his work was influential on Renaissance art but especially on Italian artists in the second half of the 15th century CE.
