Our exciting new display Discovering Dürer brings together a selection of prints by the artist for the first time since a major conservation project of all 374 of Dürer’s prints in our collection was completed. From tears to repairs, transformative specialised treatments have revealed the fascinating past lives of these prints and preserved them for years to come. Their restoration brings to life Dürer’s varied and skilled mark-making and printing techniques.

Lose yourself in the details of these intricate prints and experience a master of their craft – the closer you look, the more you’ll see.
