St Petersburg's Hermitage Museum holds 1 work 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.
Hermitage Museum
St Petersburg · 1 work on display
The Hermitage is one of the largest museums in the world, housed in the former Winter Palace and five connected buildings on the Neva embankment. The collection spans antiquity to the 20th century; the Impressionist and Post-Impressionist rooms on the third floor are among the finest anywhere.
Planning your visit to St Petersburg
The Hermitage occupies six buildings — plan a full day and accept you will see only a fraction. The museum is on the Neva embankment (metro: Admiralteyskaya or Nevsky Prospekt). Audio guides are strongly recommended; the scale of the collection is overwhelming without orientation.
