"Jan van Eyck and Albrecht Dürer are the pre-eminent Flemish and German masters from 1430 to 1530 and giants in this pivotal century in the history of western art. Van Eyck to Dürer describes how, during generations, the Flemish inspired artists from the Holy Roman Empire and influenced the course of artistic development in Europe to an extent rivalled only by the Italian Renaissance. This ambitious book is the first systematic examination of the artistic relationship between the Low Countries and Central Europe during this period. In addition to well-known (and lesser-known) works by Flemish Primitives such as Van Eyck, Campin, Van der Weyden, Van der Goes and Memling, it also includes masterpieces by famous artists of the calibre of Dürer, Schongauer, Lochner, Altdorfer and Holbein, as well as a selection of artistic gems by less celebrated painters from Germany, Hungary, Austria, the Czech Republic, Poland and Estonia. A selection of sculptures, illuminated manuscripts and prints is also reproduced."--Publisher's description
