ART AS METHOD OF SPREADING KNOWLEDGE

ENGRAVE PRINT 

ALBERT DÜRER

BRITISH MUSEUM

How important has been Durero for the art and knowledge.  It was a great challenger to be able to  brigh  after  giants as Leonardo, Miguel Ángel or Rafael, however,  this Artist from The north of Europe did it. It is very interesting that almost all print marking artist came from orfebres artisans family, and Durero was one of them. I consider that engrave and print  has been the I+D on art, by using new systems to say something and to spread it all around the world in the easiest way, (apparently) lot of work to leave the print mark of your legacy as  artist, he could have thought. And it worth it.
