Durer Albrecht

Paris is a great place for kids
The Musée du Louvre is undoubtedly one of the world’s finest art collections, and there would be nowhere more fitting to house such a collection than the magnificent Louvre Palace, an immense Renaissance complex once used as the residence of French royalty. There’s so much to see that it would be possible to spend a whole day or more exploring it. Here’s a guide to the building and the splendid works of art within it, to help plan a visit to the Louvre and see the best of what it has to offer.
History
The original building on this site was a fortress constructed by King Phillipe-Auguste in the 12th century to protect the city from the Vikings. The Louvre then evolved over the centuries to meet the needs of its various inhabitants. The first significant alterations were made by Francois I, who had a brand new Renaissance palace built, and from then a succession of monarchs and rulers all left their mark, extending and altering it until it became the stunning vast complex that it is today. The most recent changes were made in the late 20th century to improve the building’s use as a visitor attraction. Architect I M Pei added a striking glass and steel pyramid in the main courtyard as a new entrance area, which has now become one of the most famous images of the Louvre.
A tour of the architecture
As you wander around the impressive art collections, don’t forget to look out for the wonderful architecture all around. You’ll see the glass pyramid as you enter the museum, but before you do, take a walk around the courtyards to have a look at some of the beautiful external features. Perrault’s Colonnade on the east side of the building is an impressive columned façade designed in the classical style by Claude Perrault at the behest of Louis XIV in 1679. The design was so popular at the time that it set a trend for other buildings all over Europe. The oldest part of the building can be seen in an excavated area under what is now the Cour Carrée. The Medieval Moats show the foundations of the drawbridge and towers of the original fortress. The Jardin du Carrousel is also worth exploring. It’s a wonderful open space with a formally laid out garden and a magnificent triumphal arch as its centrepiece. The Arc de Triomphe du Carrousel was built by Napoleon in 1805 to celebrate French military victories.
The collections
The Museum holds over 35,000 works of art across an area of over 60,000 square metres.
Antiquities
There are three major collections of ancient artefacts: Greek, Etruscan and Roman antiquities; Egyptian antiquities and Near Eastern antiquities.
The highlights of the Greek, Etruscan and Roman collections are the Roman and Greek glassware from the 6th century BC, Roman silverware and mosaics from 1-3 AD, and clay and bronze Etruscan sculptures from the 9th to the 1st centuries BC. Also of interest are two exquisite Greek marble statues from the Hellenistic period (3rd to 2nd century BC) – Venus de Milo and the Winged Victory of Samothrace.
The Egyptian collection holds pieces from the late prehistoric period (4000 BC) to the early Christian period (4 AD). Don’t miss the religious and funerary objects such as embalming pots, urns, vases and busts, and the fascinating objects from everyday life.
One of the most fascinating objects in the Near Eastern collection is one of the world’s oldest legal documents, a Mesopotamian engraved tablet.
Paintings
The Louvre’s extensive collection of paintings covers every school of painting from all over Europe from the 14th century to the mid 19th century. French, German, Dutch, Flemish, Spanish, Italian, Scandinavian and English painters are all well represented.
Flemish painter Jan Van Eyck’s Madonna of the Chancellor Rolin is one of the oldest works, dating from 1435. There’s a great collection of Rembrandt masterpieces, such as Bathsheba (1654) and Disciples at Emmaus (1648).
The Italian section is probably the biggest crowd puller, though, which has some fabulous Renaissance paintings by Giotto, Raphael, Boticelli, Titian, Caravaggio and of course Leonardo da Vinci, whose Mona Lisa is the museum’s most famous and well loved painting.
Prints and Drawings
Works on paper, such as prints, pastels and drawings, are given a whole section. Some of the key works, which date from the 14th century to the 19th century, are those by da Vinci, Pisano, Michelangelo, Raphael, Albrecht Dürer and Hans Holbein.
Sculpture
The sculptures held by the Louvre date from the 12th century to the mid 19th century and are mainly European. One of the most impressive and unusual pieces is the tomb of Phillipe Pot, a 15th century Burgundian aristocrat, which is flanked by eight hooded monks.
Don’t miss the celebrated Marly Horses, housed in their own glass-topped courtyard, Cour Marly. These beautiful statues of wild horses were sculpted by French Guillaume Coustou in the mid 18th century. Around them are some of the museum’s other best French sculptures, including busts of key intellectual, literary and political figures such as Voltaire and Diderot.
Decorative arts
The applied and decorative arts include jewellery, ceramics, furniture, tapestries, clocks, glassware, ivories and bronzes, again dating from the Middle Ages to the mid 19th century. There are over 8,000 pieces. Some of the most exquisite objects are the French Crown Jewels, including coronation crowns, swords and sceptres. The stunning Regent diamond, one of the world’s purest precious stones, was worn by Louis XV at his coronation and is on display here. Other items include Charles V’s gold sceptre, made in 1375, and Napoleon’s coronation crown. The Hunts of Maximilian tapestries are one of the other most impressive parts of the decorative arts collection. This series of huge wall hangings was made for Charles V in the mid 16th century.
Islamic art
This is the museum’s newest collection, opened to the public in 2003. Over a thousand works from a period spanning over 13 centuries are on display. Most of the pieces are luxury objects of art which were created for the rich and powerful of various Islamic countries, such as sculptures, vases, glassware and carvings.

does anyone know about Albrecht Durer's painting "Christ Among the Doctors?" i can't fing anything on it.?
he's a German early 16th century painter.
i can find the painting, but nothing that tells me about it.
From;
http://www.wga.hu/html/d/durer/1/05/07docto.html
"At the same time as the Feast of the Rose Garlands, Dürer was working on the painting of Christ among the Doctors. The theme derives from the Gospel of St Luke (Luke 2, 41-52).
On the bookmark at the bottom left of the panel, Dürer has recorded that this picture was `the work of five days', a pointed reference to his inscription on The Altarpiece of the Rose Garlands, the work of five months. Christ among the Doctors is not only a smaller panel, but the brushwork is much more spontaneous and the paint is applied with broad and fluid strokes. Despite Dürer's statement about five days, he based it on a number of careful studies, including one of Christ's gesticulating fingers. Although not present on the original painting, two early copies of the panel have the word `Romae' added to the inscription on the bookmark and this suggests that Dürer visited Rome late in 1506. It may also be significant that the original painting was in Rome's Galleria Barberini until its acquisition by Baron Heinrich von Thyssen-Bornemisza in 1935.
The story recorded in the panel is of Christ's visit to Solomon's Temple in Jerusalem, where he debated with the learned Jewish doctors (or scribes). According to the Bible, this was the first occasion on which Christ taught. Dürer's daring composition does not use the conventional temple setting which he earlier used in the lower left panel of The Seven Sorrows of the Virgin. Instead he gives a close-up view of the faces of six doctors crowding round the young Jesus. The elderly doctors, caricatured faces which may well have been influenced by Leonardo da Vinci, argue with Christ by quoting from the Scriptures and gesticulating. Christ, a sober boy of 12, quietly gestures with his fingers to make a point. Dürer contrasts Christ's youthful hands with the gnarled fingers of the ugly old man with the white cap and a gap-toothed grin."
You might compare this painting with works by Hieronymus Bosch eg.
