Albrecht Durer, arguably the greatest artist of the northern Renaissance, was the primary conduit through whom Italian Renaissance forms and ideas were introduced into a Germany still dominated by the Gothic tradition. This program examines the life and work of the peerless painter and printmaker, focusing on some of his most important pieces. The influence of his father, a goldsmith; Anthony Koberger, Durer's godfather and one of Germany's finest printers and publishers; painter and illustrator Michael Wolgemut; and the humanist Wilibald Pirckheimer is considered as well
