Beschreibung:

(1471 - 1528)
- German artist
- Overlaps with Leonardo; Slightly younger
- Becomes a famous artist during his life
- Signs his paintings/art (beginning of this practice; no longer anonymous)

- Method of perspective construction (1525): artists are using technical tools and devices to aid their artistic endeavours

- Durer's goal is to mimic nature/reality (almost like photographs)
- Objective representation of nature
- Lot of animals (parts), hare, bugs, nature
- Unique from past artists in that he drew things that were simple and natural: e.g. bird's wing, violet

- A new way of looking at reality — and the human body: Leonardo, Durer
- A new mode of viewing representation/seeing as a way of presenting objectivity
- Another kind of scientific objectivity: seeing vs quantifying
