Condition: Good Manufacturer: Albrecht Durer
This highly detailed lithograph by Albrecht Durer is entitled "Knight Death & The Devil" and is wonderfully displayed in this engraving. Inserted in William Young Ottley's book, An Inquiry into The Origin And Early History of Engraving Upon Copper and In Wood, with An Account of Engravers And Their Works, From The Invention of Chalcography By Maso Finiguerra, to the Time of Marc Antonio Raimondi, it is very unique. Engraved by Durer, this print is on very old mid grade paper with many stains throughout. The reverse of the paper features a strange drawing of a man looking over his shoulder (See photos below). This print measures approx. 7 3/8" x 9 1/2" and is in good condition. Matte sold seperately.
A note on the source: William Ottley compiled a small collection of engravings and published them in his book History of Engraving which was published in the early 19th century. The lithographed prints were of the highest quality and represent the works of some of the greatest artists of the past. Their attention to detail makes these originals some of the most sought after prints that will be the perfect compliment to your decor.
