The Arms of Johann Tscherte 1485 - 1528

"The Arms of Johann Tscherte" is an engraving by German Renaissance artist Albrecht Dürer, completed between 1485 and 1528. The print depicts the coat of arms of Johann Tscherte, featuring a fantastical creature with a trumpet, a man with a horn and two dogs. The inscription "Soli Deo Gloria" translates to "Glory to God Alone." This print is a prime example of Dürer's masterful technique and his use of intricate detail. Currently housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the print is a testament to Dürer's significant contributions to the art of engraving.
