Albrecht-Dürer-Denkmal

3 BradJill - 2 years ago

There are many statues scattered around the historic city centre of Nuremburg including the Albrecht Dürer Monument at Albrecht-Duerer-Platz and Bergstraße.

This monument is the work of German sculptor Christian Daniel Rauch and was unveiled at this location in 1840. At that time, the square was a milk market.

Albrecht Dürer was born in Nuremburg, lived here for numerous years and executed many of his famous works within the city. He is considered one of German's most important historical artists and his works are now found in important art museums and galleries around the western world.

The bronze statue you see here reminds of his famous self portrait. Albrecht stands in a proud manner, much detail being applied to his face and flowing robes. The statue stands upon a simple stone pedestal with the artist's name.

It is good monument of Dürer, one worth seeking out for a brief viewing before or after visiting the well preserved and restored Albrecht Durer House around 5 minutes walk from this location.

(Translated by Google) This themed tour is great in the summer, and there is no more rewarding visit than a visit to the wine cellars that saved Nuremberg.

(Translated by Google) The monument to Alberto Dürer is sober, austere, as the artist was in life. Dürer was born and died in Nuremberg (1471-1528). He is undoubtedly the most famous German Renaissance artist. He made paintings, engravings and also left important theoretical writings. A true man of rebirth.

(Original)
El monumento a Alberto Durero es sobrio, austero, como fue el artista en vida. Durero nació y murió en Nuremberg (1471-1528). Es sin duda el artista del renacimiento alemán más famoso. Realizó pinturas, garbados y también dejó importantes escritos teóricos. Un auténtico hombre del renacimiento.

(Translated by Google) Albrecht Dürer Monument
Albrecht Dürer looks out over Albrecht-Dürer-Platz high up from his pedestal. The laying of the foundation stone for his memorial on the occasion of the 300th anniversary of his death in 1828 was just as much a national event as the inauguration in 1840. The Albrecht Dürer memorial was the first memorial in Germany to be erected in honor of an artist, designed by Christian Rauch and cast by Jacob Burgschmiet.

Albrecht-Dürer-Denkmal
Hoch oben von seinem Sockel blickt Albrecht Dürer über den Albrecht-Dürer-Platz. Die Grundsteinlegung zu seinem Denkmal anlässlich des 300. Todestages im Jahr 1828 war ebenso ein nationales Ereignis wie die feierliche Einweihung im Jahr 1840. Das Albrecht-Dürer-Denkmal war das erste Denkmal in Deutschland, das einem Künstler zu Ehren aufgestellt wurde, entworfen von Christian Rauch und gegossen von Jacob Burgschmiet.
