Vienna's Kunsthistorisches Museum holds 10 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.
