Discuss the role of line in Albrecht Dürer's work. Why was line so important in creating a sense of space and depth, features that artists of his time were intently exploring?
What will be an ideal response?
Dürer and his Renaissance colleagues were fascinated with exploring space in two-dimensional works, especially the technique of linear perspective. Linear perspective used line-both actual and implied-extensively. Further, you can see from the woodcut in the text, how Dürer used line to create shape and shadow (through hatching) as well as visual texture.
