Never has this chapter in the fascinating history of Old Master adulation been explored as thoroughly as here.” —Joseph Leo Koerner,author of Dürer's Hands “While Renaissance studies have taken the international importance of Albrecht Dürer as a given for a long time, his role for the nineteenth-century imagination has remained mostly a German affair. Smith’s wide-ranging study will change this. Written in vivid, easily accessible prose, the book presents the reader with a rich picture of Dürer’s omnipresence in the museum age across the globe.” —Cordula Grewe,author of The Nazarenes: Romantic Avant-garde and the Art of the Concept Albrecht Durer and the Embodiment of Genius richly explores the great museums and their decorative programs.
