1697 ART Albrecht DURER Human Anatomy
Proportion Drawing Illustrated ENGLISH
Albrecht
Durer was a famous 15th-century painter and humanist. His engravings
have become some of the most desirable Renaissance illustrations and have been
repeatedly analyzed and studied by landscape and human-form artists. One of
Durer’s best written works was his instructional treatise on human proportion.
This work provided direction on how to accurate draw the human form, both male
and female figures and all parts of the body. “On Human Proportion” was one of
the leading works of its kind even into the 18th-century.
This 1697
edition of Durer’s “Human Proportion”
was published in London and features 19 impressive full-page engravings, each
with dozens of figures and examples. This particular edition is exceedingly
rare! A must have!
