The Northern Renaissance: Durer to Holbein by Kate Heard

Catalog of a very good exhibit with many famous Holberins from Henry VIII's court and elsewhere (Thomas Kore, Erasmus, etc.) and more Durer beyond the usual prints --some of these convinced me that Durer prints were not all as ugly as I thought. Also many excellent pieces by Louis Cranach the Elder, notably a JUdgment of Paris with Venus giving a really wicked look over her shoulder as if saying "I know I have the greatest ass."
