He brought the artistic philosophies of proportion and perspective popular in the southern Renaissance of Italy back to his hometown of Nuremberg, Germany. These aspects of the Renaissance are perhaps best embodied in his prints, a medium through which he achieved exceptional detail. This image from his 1511 <em>Large Passion <\/em>series originally accompanied by text on the title page, prefaced eleven other prints depicting the suffering of Christ and his ultimate sacrifice. Intended to inspire devotion and empathy in viewers, D\u00fcrer portrays Jesus with his hands clasped in prayerful anguish as the scowling Roman soldier mocks his claim to divine kingship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/3W-q4pOjbiY\">View the Curator&#8217;s Corner video on this piece.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"979\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/muam-arthistory\/files\/2020\/04\/1950.PR_.0.76-smaller-979x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-40\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/muam-arthistory\/files\/2020\/04\/1950.PR_.0.76-smaller-979x1024.jpg 979w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/muam-arthistory\/files\/2020\/04\/1950.PR_.0.76-smaller-287x300.jpg 287w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/muam-arthistory\/files\/2020\/04\/1950.PR_.0.76-smaller-768x803.jpg 768w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/muam-arthistory\/files\/2020\/04\/1950.PR_.0.76-smaller.jpg 1800w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 979px) 100vw, 979px\" \/><figcaption>Albrecht D\u00fcrer (German, 1471-1528) <em>The Man of Sorrows Mocked by a Soldier Who Offers Him the Reed, <\/em>from title page of the <em>Large Passion <\/em>series, ca. 1511 Wood engraving Gift to Miami University 1950.PR.0.76&nbsp;<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\" \/>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Curator&#039;s Corner :: Episode 2 :: Man of Sorrows\u2026 by Albrecht D\u00fcrer\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/3W-q4pOjbiY?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><figcaption> Curator&#8217;s Corner :: Episode 2 :: Man of Sorrows\u2026 by Albrecht D\u00fcrer <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\" \/>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>Master painter, draftsman and printmaker Albrecht D\u00fcrer was among the most influential of the northern Renaissance artists.
