 I chose Albrecht Durer’s “Flower” illustration to compare to my Eiffel tower drawing, because I love the hatching techniques he uses to show the shadow. ART HISTORY ASSESSMENT 1 Albrecht Durer, “Flower” n.d.

 Albrecht Durer is a very interesting artist. He uses the hatching techniques that we’re using in art now. I think that is very interesting to know a real artist that uses what we’re using. ALBRECHT DURER Albrecht Durer

SIMILARITIES Albrecht Durer image is somewhat similar to mine, because the hatching we used for the flower’s shading is similar. They both have flowers! The mood is kind of the same for each picture, they’re both very peaceful and happy. Albrecht Durer, “Flower” n.d. Abigail Mac Ann, “Paris” 10/7/14

DIFFERENCES There are many differences between my illustration and Albrecht Durer’s illustration. Albrecht Durer’s picture has more hatching than my image. The positions of the pictures are very different. The meaning is different too, his image shows a flower growing where you wouldn’t usually see a flower grow. Where as my image shows the excitement of first seeing something and automatically loving it. Albrecht Durer, “Flower” n.d. Abigail Mac Ann, “Paris” 10/7/14

REFLECTION  I think Albrecht Durer would like my image. I used the hatching techniques that he is famous for. I know I didn’t do as well of a job as he did but I think he would like that I tried.  I think he would like the way I used his work to inspire me. I love the way he used hatching to show shadow, and I used that in my work. I do think that he would like some of my work.
