This geometric design, created between 1500 and 1521, showcases Durer’s masterful skill in pattern and detail. The intricate, symmetrical knots, wreaths and the scalloped shield in the center, create a visually stunning and mathematically precise composition. This work exemplifies Durer's fascination with geometry and his ability to translate it into art.
