The time had come, and a passionate thirst for renewal swept like a hurricane through the south of the European continent and then northward. Innovation and a daring break with the past were born in different forms. With the Italians - a lofty idealization of a man worthy of admiration and elevated on a pedestal of heroic personality. With the Germans and Netherlanders - quite different. Man - the creation of God, he thinks more about the soul, he is part of the divine plan. Northern artist does not take into the world of absolute beauty, he rather strives for verisimilitude, to the ruthless authenticity of life or astonishing spectacle of mystical revelations. But both are united by a keen interest in earthly life, in man and his deeds.
The bright peaks of new speculation, which made an unprecedented revolution in art, were Albrecht Dürer, Hieronymus Bosch, Pieter Bruegel. Their search for new forms, the ideal of spiritual freedom of the individual, sharp satire and grotesque became the basis for the brilliant flourishing of art of that era and a new breakthrough in the next century.
A unique chance to delve into this mysterious, eerie world and compare the power and beauty of the creative gift of these three masters is the purpose of this edition.
