Lot description

lithograph, paper,17.5 x 35.5 cm composition in passe - partout light, 30 x 48 cm in passe-partout frame, made in the 19th century by the museum office "Albertina Facsymiles in Vienna; unique print from the only unique edition of Durer's graphics published at the end of the 19th century, signed AD , stamp of the Albertina Museum l.g.
(Albertina is one of the most important art museums in Austria, holding the largest and most valuable collection of drawings and prints by Albrecht Dürer).

The painting "View of Nuremberg" , a watercolor by Albrecht Dürer, is one of the early examples of landscape in European art, where nature and the city were depicted in harmony, a relatively new approach in Renaissance art. Dürer was one of the first European artists to turn his attention to landscape as a painting subject. His works are characterized by attention to detail, perspective and color harmony and represent an important contribution to the development of landscape painting in the Renaissance.
Dürer was a master of the watercolor technique. His ability to create subtle color transitions attests to the artist's great craftsmanship. He used water-based paints and gouache to create fuller and more saturated colors.

Dürer rendered architectural details and natural landscapes with great precision, a testament to his extraordinary observational skills and ability to render reality with great fidelity. Although it is a watercolor, which by nature produces more subtle and delicate effects than oil painting, Dürer managed to capture the depth of space and richness of detail.

The painting also has value as a historical document, depicting a view of Innsbruck in the late 15th century. It is a valuable record of the appearance of the city, which has undergone numerous changes since then.

"View of Nuremberg" is a watercolor that perfectly illustrates Dürer's abilities as a landscape artist and documentarian. His ability to capture both natural beauty and architectural details makes this work unique and important in the context of the development of European art.
