Dead Blue Roller, 1583. Creator: Hans Hoffmann (German, 1545 / 50-1591 / 92)
Dead Blue Roller, 1583. Half a century after his death, Albrecht Durers work continued to inspire artists and collectors. Well known for his copies of Durers nature studies, Hoffmann faithfully copied Durers celebrated drawing of a dead blue roller of 1512 in this exquisite watercolour. A network of very fine brushstrokes imitates the individual plumes of the birds underside while simultaneously suggesting an overall soft, downy texture. Hoffmans prominent monogram and date indicate he never intended this to pass as an original by the older master: he meant it as an homage to the greatest German artist of the 1500s
