{"product_id":"albrecht-durer-adam-and-eve-engraving-print","title":"Albrecht Dürer — Adam and Eve | Engraving Print","description":"\u003cp\u003eAdam and Eve stand facing each other in a dark forest, leafy sprigs covering them. Adam holds a branch of mountain ash; Eve takes a fruit from the serpent coiled round the tree between them and holds another in her other hand at her side. A parrot perches on Adam's branch beside a tablet inscribed with the artist's name and 1504. A cat crouches at their feet near a mouse, an elk, a rabbit and an ox rest in the shadows, and a goat stands on a crag.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDürer engraved Adam and Eve in 1504, drawing on classical sculpture to show the first couple in perfect, uncorrupted beauty moments before the Fall. The Cleveland Museum of Art reads the elk, rabbit, cat and ox as the four temperaments in balance, the cat and mouse as a hint of the aggression to come, and the parrot as a herald of the Virgin Mary as the new Eve. The museum calls the print hugely influential in spreading natural symbolism across Europe.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe original: engraving, 1504, Cleveland Museum of Art.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAlbrecht Dürer (1471–1528) was a German painter, printmaker and theorist of the Northern Renaissance, born in Nuremberg, the son of a goldsmith. He trained in the workshop of Michael Wolgemut and travelled twice to Italy, bringing Italian ideas of proportion and perspective north of the Alps. His woodcut series, above all the Apocalypse of 1498, and his engravings, among them Knight, Death and the Devil, Saint Jerome in His Study and Melencolia I, raised printmaking to the level of painting and circulated across Europe in his lifetime. He also made watercolours of plants and animals from close observation, painted portraits and altarpieces, and published treatises on measurement and human proportion. His prints are held by the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the National Gallery of Art, the British Museum and the Albertina.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePrinted as a museum-grade giclée on Hahnemühle fine art paper using 12-ink archival pigment printing.
