Besides painting Durer was expert at woodcarving and etching. He also executed fine nature studies in water color and sketching. The printing press had just come into use and he recognized the salability of works for the masses at modest price, so he is one of the earliest masters in this "mass-produced" art. The museum has more than you could assimilate. Unfortunately they are all behind glass in lighting not designed for photography; so some are not entire but I hope sharp. I left out the most famous ones. This something one rarely encounters in large numbers.
