Abstract

Ulinka Rublack's study delves into the story of Dürer's lost masterpiece, an altarpiece commissioned by Jakob Heller in 1509. The book explores the relationship between artist and patron, the German art market of the sixteenth century, and the emergence of art agents. It also discusses Dürer's shift towards more commercially viable work and his impact on the emerging art market after his death. The text provides a detailed analysis of Dürer's artistry and the evolution of the art market, making it a valuable resource for those interested in art history. [Extracted from the article]
