🖼 The Stork, 1515

Brussels, Belgium

Meticulous detail captures a stork in profile, rendered with precise hatching and delicate linework characteristic of Northern Renaissance printmaking. Dürer's 1515 engraving demonstrates his mastery of observation and technical skill, establishing the stork as a symbol of devotion and domesticity in German art.
