Van Eyck to Durer

Brings together work by two great masters, Van Eyck and Dürer, along with work by their contemporaries to illustrate the interaction between Flemish and Central European artists in the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries. Jan van Eyck and Albrecht Dürer were two titans in a pivotal century in the history of western art. For several generations, the Flemish Primitives inspired artists from the Holy Roman Empire and influenced the course of artistic development in Europe to a degree rivaled only by the innovations of the Italian Renaissance.
