List of paintings by Albrecht Dürer

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The following is an incomplete list of paintings by the German painter and engraver Albrecht Dürer.

Legend for the table[edit]

Articles at the beginning of some titles are dropped for better sortability. Paintings that belong together are not always joined, except for the occasional back sides of paintings. Secondary specifications are in small font. The original medium is mentioned first, modifications that represent the current state are stated subsequently. In the case of Dürer time spans are not likely to represent the time spent working on the picture, instead usually signifies the (ideally) most recent estimated date by scholars for a work, that has no year stated by Dürer's own hand (usually with his monogram "AD") and/or decisive source.

For the current location the city is mentioned first, it is most unambiguous and allows to combine multiple galleries of that city. The gallery where the work is displayed is mentioned second, (sometimes) followed by the name of the actual superordinate collection owning the work. The inventory number of the object in brackets is (ideally) linked to the entry in the online catalogue of the collection if available. The last column gives the number of the catalogue raisonnée of Dürer's paintings, which Fedja Anzelewsky, lifelong affiliated with the Kupferstichkabinett Berlin, compiled and published in 1971 (and revised 20 years later). The legend for the four different capitals following the chronological numbering is as follows:

  • K ("Kopie") only survived as copy
  • V ("verschollen") for lost but known through writings
  • Z ("Zeichnung") painting that only survived in drawings
  • W ("Werkstatt") workshop painting
