What was Dürer famous for?
1 Answer

Dürer was famous for his work as an artist. Albrecht Dürer revolutionized woodcut printmaking as an art form, and his influence over the medium's practitioners has endured for centuries. Revered for his masterfully detailed prints and drawings, the German artist was driven by boundless curiosity. Dürer was the Renaissance personified in 16th-century northern Europe; this attribute earned him the title “Leonardo of the North.” On 1stDibs, shop a variety of fine art.
