Northern Renaissance - 2. The Birth of the Artist

I have been posting the first episodes of a number of documentary series. In this instance, I am specifically posting the next, i.e. episode two. So much about Albrecht Durer; I had no idea.

"Joseph Leo Koerner argues that the Renaissance in Northern Europe - more so than its Italian counterpart - laid the foundations of modern art. He assesses the career of German painter Albrecht Durer, who harnessed the new medium of printing to become the first world-famous artist."
