Portrait of Erasmus is a late period 1526 copper engraving by the German artist Albrecht Dürer. The portrait was commissioned by the Dutch Renaissance humanist Desiderius Erasmus of Rotterdam (c.1466-69 – 1536) when the two men met in the Netherlands between 1520 and 1521. Erasmus was then at the height of his renown, and required representations of himself to accompany his writings. It was not completed until some six years later, but proceeds a number of preparatory sketches made at that time.

  • Érasme de Rotterdam est une gravure sur cuivre datée de 1526 de l'artiste de la Renaissance allemande Albrecht Dürer. Le portrait est commandé par l'humaniste néerlandais de la Renaissance Érasme (v.1466-69 - 1536) lorsque les deux hommes se rencontrent aux Pays-Bas entre 1520 et 1521. Érasme est alors au faîte de sa renommée et exige des représentations de lui-même pour accompagner ses écrits. Il n'est achevé que six ans plus tard, mais procède d'un certain nombre d'esquisses préparatoires réalisées à cette époque. (fr)

Erasmus was then at the height of his renown, and required representations of himself to accompany his writings. It was not completed until some six years later, but proceeds a number of preparatory sketches made at that time. It is not a close representation of Erasmus' physical characteristics, for which has sometimes been criticised, including by Erasmus himself, and by Martin Luther, with whom Erasmus had a prolonged and thorny relationship. It is today viewed by art historians as a pioneering capture of his moral integrity, intellectualism and scholarship, and is one of the most popular and recognisable portraits of the sitter. (en)
