Recensione:

Winner of the 2003 Art Newspaper/AXA Exhibition Catalogue of the Year Prize

"In the early 1500s, Dürer was 'Europe's most famous living artist.' . . . [T]he reverence for the German in the sixteenth century and beyond gives the show its basic theme: his enduring influence. . . The enthusiastic reception the artist inspired, and the way that different generations have made him their own, is also the central concern of the beautifully illustrated catalogue." --Times Literary Supplement

"Sure to become a standard reference source on the graphic art of Albrecht Dürer. . . . [An] impressive publication." --Choice
