Madrid's Museo del Prado holds 5 works by Albrecht Dürer (1471–1528) — the city's entire known holding of this artist in a single institution.
Dürer brought the Italian Renaissance to Northern Europe and was the first artist north of the Alps to fully understand himself as a great artist. His self-portraits — among the first in Western art — are extraordinary objects in person: the surface of his panels has a precision that challenges belief.

The Prado is one of the world's great art museums, with an unparalleled collection of Spanish painting — Velázquez, Goya, El Greco — alongside outstanding Italian and Flemish Old Masters. Allow a full day; the Velázquez rooms alone take two hours to do justice to.
