Durer's memoirs provide a unique insight into the cultural and artistic scene of the time, as well as the political and social climate in these regions. He describes his encounters with prominent artists, scholars, and patrons, including Leonardo da Vinci and Raphael, and shares his observations on their works and techniques.The book also offers a glimpse into the life of a traveling artist during this period, detailing the challenges and rewards of navigating foreign lands and cultures. Durer's vivid descriptions of the landscapes, architecture, and people he encountered during his travels make for a compelling and immersive read.Overall, Memoirs of Journeys to Venice and the Low Countries is a valuable historical document that sheds light on the artistic and cultural exchanges that took place during the Renaissance, as well as the experiences of a pioneering artist and traveler.Those who go about on the Riva always expect four times the value for anything, for they are the falsest knaves that live there. No one expects to get an honest service of them. For that reason some good people warned me to be on my guard against them. They told me that they cheat both man and beast, and that you could buy better things for less money at Frankfort than at Venice.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
