EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the Lower Portion of the Entryway to the Right Portal, also known as "Die Porten des Adels" along with the Outer Right Sockel of the Central Portal. Created by Hieronymus Andreae in 1515 and printed between 1517-18, this architectural masterpiece showcases intricate decorative elements that were popular during the 16th century. The photograph highlights the remarkable craftsmanship of Albrecht Durer, a renowned German artist who collaborated with Andreae on this project. The detailed woodcut design features various animals, including monkeys and a snail, adorning the pediment. These creatures add an element of whimsy to an otherwise grand structure. Inside this historic building lies a rich heritage that is palpable through every line and curve. The location remains undisclosed but is believed to be in Germany due to its distinct German architectural style. Hans Springinklee's contribution can also be seen in this piece, as he worked alongside Durer and Andreae to bring their vision to life. Together they created a harmonious blend of animal motifs and architectural formschneyde (decorative carving) that exemplify their artistic prowess. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this print allows viewers to appreciate not only the skillful execution but also Wolfgang Traut's meticulous proofing process which ensures accuracy in capturing every detail. Through this image, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand the beauty and artistry that flourished
