Durer, also known as the Leonardo of the North, due to his branching off into different fields of study such as Leonardo da Vinci did, was a noted painter, print-maker and theorist.

He lived in Nuremberg, Germany and brought the ideas of Renaissance art to Germany from his repeated visits to Italy. These ideas included mathematical perspectives and idealized proportions.

However, he was much better known for his prints than his paintings, since most of his paintings were kept private.
