Dürer House in Nuremberg, Germany

#September2025 Walking through the winding alleys of Nuremberg's Old Town, you'll come upon a medieval-style timber frame house—the former residence of German Renaissance master Albrecht Dürer. Its red and white timber trusses and pitched roof exude a strong 16th-century feel, transporting you back to a time of vibrant art and thought. Entering the museum, the ancient wooden staircase creaks gently. Each floor showcases Dürer's prints, engraving tools, and daily life. Through meticulously planned exhibition areas, you can glimpse his pursuit of perfect light, shadow, and proportion in his works, as well as his role as a thinker, mathematician, and humanist. The delicate copperplate engravings, in particular, shimmer with a cool yet moving beauty under the dim light. The most impressive moment is when light from the window streams into the studio, illuminating the wooden table and paintbrush—a moment of tranquility and concentration, as if Dürer is still gazing at the world from the window, contemplating the balance between line and soul. 🌟 "Art is not just a created painting, but a dialogue between an individual and his time."
