Rustic Couple 1497

"Rustic Couple" is a woodcut print created by Albrecht Dürer in 1497. This artwork showcases Dürer's mastery of detail and realism in depicting a peasant couple, likely from the artist’s hometown of Nuremberg, Germany. The man, with his open coat and furrowed brow, seems to be speaking animatedly to the woman. This image is a testament to Dürer's ability to capture the essence of everyday life, highlighting the beauty and dignity of the common people during the Renaissance era.
