The Durer exhibition in Frankfurt was a highlight of the exhibition tour of Europe. The dark currents of the river that Stadel Museum feel reflected in come forth in this exhibition and prodigiously with the works on paper. There were several famous works often reproduced in books of Durer's worth. Unfortunately they are often the crowds understanding of what should be circled around so viewing space is limited. Happening several views are necessary and going at different times of the day can be useful. The Apocalypse series was full of the most sacred information you could possibly care to observe. His masterful trio of "St. Jerome in his Study", ca. 1514, "Melencolia I (Melancholy), ca. 1514 and "The Knight, Death, and the Devil", ca. 1513, were as close to your heart as God would allow you to go. Durer's Apostle series was also well worth the view and the darkened plates seemed to accentuate his ascension to the Lord. The accompanying works were also a very special inclusion and referenced well the philosophy of the time.
