Durer and His Times is a comprehensive book written by Wilhelm Waetzoldt that delves into the life and works of the famous German artist, Albrecht Durer. The book is divided into two parts, with the first part focusing on Durer's life, his artistic career, and his influence on the art world during the 15th and 16th centuries. The second part of the book delves into the cultural and historical context of Durer's time, exploring the political, economic, and social factors that shaped the Renaissance period in Germany.The book is richly illustrated with over 300 images of Durer's paintings, drawings, and prints, as well as photographs of the cities and landscapes that he depicted in his work. The author provides detailed analyses of Durer's artistic techniques and styles, as well as his use of symbolism and allegory in his paintings and prints.In addition to his artistic talent, Durer was also a prolific writer and thinker, and the book includes excerpts from his letters and writings, providing insight into his creative process and his views on art, religion, and society.Overall, Durer and His Times is an essential read for anyone interested in the art and culture of the Renaissance period, and a valuable resource for scholars and students of art history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
