Albrecht+Durer-+Grace+Hamilton

 Albrecht Durer was a Renaissance figure who was a German Artist. He lived in the German city of Nuremberg from 1471 to 1528. Albrecht was the son of a goldsmith and he received a good education. His education provided him with the studies of Latin, Math and Classical Literature. The way that he painted sows us that he was fashionable, creative and had an intellectual mind. Albrecht was very well known for blending the detailed styles of German art with the beauty from Italian paintings. He was also very well known for his talent of making engravings and woodcuts.



Albrecht Durer has works that are still well known today. These paintings include the Apocalypse, Knight, Death, the Devil, St. Jerome in his study, and the Melencolia I. Because of works like this, he is kown as one of the greatest artists of the renaissance.



Some of Albrecht Durer's work like the apocalypse, show more of a Gothic style  than the rest of his works.

I think Albrecht Durer left a big impact on the world of art with his use of engravings and carvings and his blending of the syles of German and Italian art.
