A dramatic poem that reads like a vivid conversation across centuries, Albert Dürer (Part III) invites readers into the life and work of a paramount northern European genius. This edition transforms a notable historical verse into a living experience: a poetic biography that blends critical insight with lyrical immediacy. The form, a historically resonant blend of dramatic poem and narrative craft, renders the Renaissance artist's life with clarity and reverence, drawing in art history readers, literary scholars, and curious casual readers alike. Rich in texture and atmosphere, it unfolds as a compelling journey through discipline, craft, and the awakening of a painter-sage whose influence travels from German renaissance studios to Edwardian poetry and beyond. Sturge Moore's voice-fused with modern sensitivity-illuminates both the man and the era, inviting readers to see, feel, and reflect. Historically significant and stylistically distinctive, the work sits at the intersection of literary biography and historical verse, offering enduring value to collectors and scholars. This Alpha Editions edition is more than a reprint; it is a restored cultural treasure designed for today's audience and for future generations of art lovers. Out of print for decades, it returns as a collectors edition that honours its origins while ensuring accessibility for contemporary readers and steadfast admirers of Sturge Moore poetry. An essential addition for anyone exploring renaissance artist life and the broader arc of northern european art.
