Young Man and Maids 1506

Erhard Altdorfer's 1506 engraving, "Young Man and Maids," showcases the artist's mastery of detail and line. The print depicts a young man seated between two women, one seated and the other standing. The figures are rendered in a precise and expressive style, their clothing and gestures conveying their individual personalities. The scene is set in an interior space, with a window providing a glimpse of the exterior. This work is a prime example of the German Renaissance, reflecting the era's interest in human representation and the everyday world.
