EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the renowned artwork titled "Proportions of the human figure, c1492" by Albrecht Durer. Created in 1936, this piece is a representation of the iconic Vitruvian Man. Housed within the esteemed collection of Galleria dell Accademia in Venice, Italy, it stands as a testament to Durer's artistic genius. The image depicts a male figure standing with his arms outstretched, symbolizing harmony and balance. The concept behind this masterpiece lies in its exploration of human proportions and their relationship to geometry. Through meticulous attention to detail, Durer captures the essence of both beauty and mathematical precision. Dressed only in his nakedness, this man represents humanity itself - vulnerable yet powerful. His presence evokes contemplation on our place within the world and our connection to nature. Albrecht Durer was a German artist who flourished during the 15th century. Alongside Leonardo da Vinci, he is considered one of history's greatest masters. This particular print from Wilhelm Waetzoldt's book "Durer Und Seine Zeit" transports us back to that era when art was at its zenith. As we gaze upon this monochrome masterpiece from the forties decade, we are reminded of Germany's rich artistic heritage and its contribution to global culture. The print collector has preserved this valuable piece for generations to come so that we may continue appreciating Albrecht Durer's profound impact on art
