Trade Review
Praise for Princeton's previous editions: "Whatever was immortal of Albrecht Durer is covered by this book."--Wolfgang Stechow, Art Bulletin "Panofsky'sDurer--the result of a lifetime of looking, thinking, reading and making connections--belongs in the library of anyone who takes art seriously. Everything we could want to know about one of history's stellar artists is here."--Victor M. Cassidy, ArtNet.com "The Life and Art of Albrecht Durer may be mandatory reading for students and scholars alike, but it is also one of the more enjoyable reading assignments out there, one that can be mined for material again and again... Smith's concise and well-paced introduction adds another layer to the history of the life of the book itself within the context of twentieth-century historiography."--Susan Maxwell, Sixteenth Century Journal
