Albrecht Duerer's Afterlife:Albrecht Duerer (1471 1528) enjoyed European wide fame during his lifetime. Duerer was not only a brilliant painter, but also a pioneering printmaker, experimental draughtsman, book publisher, first German art theoretician and amateur poet. His art was avidly collected, repeatedly copied in diverse media, and often forged. Then, with his death, the posthumous Duerers were born. This book addresses his afterlife or, more correctly, afterlives.
