Planned at the same time as his great Apocalypse, Albrecht Dürer’s series of woodcuts illustrating the Passion of Christ, produced between 1497 and 1510, is one of the summits of his art and an astonishing sixteenth-century demonstration of virtuosic printmaking. Dürer’s meditation on the final moments of Jesus’ story is both awe-inspiring and profoundly human.
Albrecht Dürer (1471-1528), painter, print maker and theorist, is widely considered the greatest German artist and one of the greatest artists of all time.
