An authoritative new two-volume publication cataloguing the German paintings before 1800 in the collection of the National Gallery, London This fully illustrated catalogue presents the most up-to-date research on the 75 paintings in the National Gallery created in the German-speaking lands before 1800. Among them are important groups of works by artists such as Hans Holbein the Younger—including his famous double portrait The Ambassadors of 1533—Lucas Cranach the Elder, Albrecht Dürer, and Adam Elsheimer. This is the first catalogue of German paintings since 1959 and includes authoritative entries on a number of important new acquisitions. Each entry discusses in detail the subject matter, authorship, provenance and art historical significance of the work. The German Paintings before 1800 also includes two essays, the first discussing the history of the paintings’ acquisition by the National Gallery and the taste for German painting in Britain, and the second addressing the ways in which these German artists produced their work.

An exploration of Dürer’s career and legacy as an international traveling artistThe visual legacy of Dürer’s travels extends far beyond his lifetime and throughout Europe, and the documents illuminating them offer unique insights into the distinctive ways Dürer conducted and managed his career, making him an intriguing—and even controversial—figure. This generously illustrated book examines the career of preeminent Renaissance artist Albrecht Dürer (1471–1528) as an international traveler, addressing his relations with artists from Italy to the Low Countries, including Giovanni Bellini, Joos van Cleve, Jan Gossaert, Lucas van Leyden, Quentin Massys, and Bernard van Orley. Bringing together paintings, drawings and prints, the book examines Dürer as an artist-entrepreneur, explorer, and innovator of artistic theory. Dürer’s treatises and letters, and his detailed journal documenting his journey to the Low Countries in 1520–21, offer insights into his artistic practices and encounters with artists and patrons, as well as the nature of travel in the early 16th century.Published by National Gallery Company/Distributed by Yale University Press Exhibition Schedule:The National Gallery, LondonMarch 6, 2021—June 13, 2021 Suermondt-Ludwig Museum, AachenJuly 18, 2021—October 24, 2021
