Albrecht Dürer's travels through his own words and sketches | National Gallery

#AntiqueMasterpieces"Dürer's surviving personal correspondence and diary entries tell us a great deal about his journeys. Despite the hundreds of years that separate us, his diary entries, personal sketches and letters are full of incident and anecdote and give us a sense of his character, his intellect, even his sense of humour.

Through paintings, drawings, prints, and letters, our exhibition 'Dürer's Journeys: Travels of a Renaissance Artist' brings to life this art history megastar and the people and places he visited."
