		ALTDORFER 1480-1538), German painter and engraver, was born at Regensburg (Ratisbon), where in 1505 he was enrolled a burgher, and described as "twenty-five years old." Soon afterwards he is known to have been prosperous, and as city architect he erected fortifications and a public slaughterhouse.
		Altdorfer has been called the "Giorgione of the North." His paintings are remarkable for minute and careful finish, and for close study of nature.

	History of Art:The High Renaissance, Mannerism - Albrecht Altdorfer
		Altdorfer spent most of his life in Regensburg, becoming a citizen in 1505 and in later years serving as official architect of the city and a member of its inner council.
		Altdorfer's masterpiece, the “Battle of Alexander at Issus” (1529; Alte Pinakothek, Munich), is both a battle scene of incredible detail and a highly dramatic and expressive landscape.
		Altdorfer's interest in the changes caused by light at different times of the day and the changes of the seasons of the year, as well as the continuous cycle of growth, decay, and rebirth, link him spiritually with both Baroque and the 19th-century Romantic landscapists.

	The Woodcuts Of Albrecht Altdorfer
		This problem Altdorfer was the first to solve on a wood block, and he did it by using only the fl block, but so completely subordinating the individual line to the mass of shade that at times we are hardly conscious of the line.
		Altdorfer, the architect and builder, had come into frequent and intimate contact with laborers and artisans, with the result that in his work there is rarely to be seen any gesture or movement that is not muscularly effective and that does not bear the imprint of practical observation.
		ALTDORFER'S woodcuts constitute all but the smallest part of his artistic baggage, and, from his own point of view, probably the least important, since however deliberately and seriously done, they have an experimental quality which indicates that they were produced in the interludes of a busy and worldly life.

		The leading member of the Danube school, Albrecht Altdorfer is renowned for his expressive treatment of nature and for introducing landscape as an independent theme.

		The directness of the etching medium had great appeal to landscapists and was taken up with enthusiasm in the next century by the Dutch artists who founded a new school of landscape art, producing recognizable portraits of their native land in both prints and paintings.

		With its dazzling light effects, teeming figures, and brilliant colours, it is one of the finest examples of Altdorfer's rich imaginative powers.
		The fantastic element that pervaded his paintings was also prominent in his drawings, most of which were done with fl and white lines on brown or blue-gray paper.
		His engravings and woodcuts, usually miniatures, were distinguished by their playful imaginativeness, the most important being 40 plates entitled The Fall and Redemption of Man. In 1530 he began using the new medium of etching to produce nine landscapes and a series of fanciful tankards intended as work models for goldsmiths.
