EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the "Portrait of Pirkheimer, 1524" by Albrecht Durer. The image showcases a side view of a distinguished German man from the Renaissance era. Clad in fur clothes with an elaborate collar, this male figure exudes authority and sophistication. The subject is believed to be Willibald Pirckheimer, a prominent lawyer and humanist of his time. His overweight physique adds character to the portrait, while his profile reveals a thoughtful expression. The engraving technique used in this artwork brings out intricate details, emphasizing every line and texture. Durer's mastery shines through as he skillfully portrays Pirkheimer's personality through his artistry. The Latin text accompanying the portrait further enhances its historical significance. Dating back to the 16th century but printed in 1906 for "The Engravings of Albert Durer" by Lionel Cust, this monochrome piece transports us back in time. It serves as a testament to both Durer's talent as an artist and Pirkheimer's influence during that period. Preserved by Heritage Images, this print allows us to appreciate Northern Renaissance art at its finest. It offers viewers a glimpse into Germany's rich cultural heritage while honoring one of its most notable figures from centuries past - Willibald Pirckheimer.
