Art and architecture in the land of Albrecht Dürer
21 – 28 June 2010
Lecturer: Dr Joachim Strupp
Franconia is home to many of Germany's greatest mediaeval and Renaissance
treasures. Its idyllic landscape of rolling hills and winding rivers
is packed with proud towns and castles, monasteries and pilgrimage sites,
from romantic Rothenburg to cosmopolitan Nürnberg, from Bamberg’s
majestic 13th-century cathedral to the exquisite rococo jewel at Vierzehnheiligen.
From this region came some of Germany's most significant artists, among
them Albrecht Dürer, the most complete personification of Renaissance
Man north of the Alps, and the sculptors Veit Stoss and Tilman Riemenschneider,
whose statues and reliefs are stunning virtuoso masterpieces.
