AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Albrecht Dürer (1471-1528) (after)
Melencolia

Engraving
Signed in the plate
On Arches vellum 46.5 x 39 cm

INFORMATION: Created in 1514, Melencolia is one of the most famous engravings by Albrecht Dürer. Its rich universe of symbols—angels, polyhedra, Masonic and alchemical references, an hourglass, and a magic square—has sparked passionate studies and inspired many artists, particularly Salvador Dali, who often references it.
To make this exceptional antique engraving accessible, the Artfever gallery has produced a new edition: the plate was engraved by J. Boiteux after the copy held at the Bibliothèque Nationale de France, and the print was made using traditional methods, hand-printed on a hand press in a printmaking workshop.
