На блошином рынке во Франции обнаружили утерянную гравюру Дюрера XVI века
8 августа 2016 ● РИА Новости.
Медная гравюра прославленного немецкого живописца и графика Альбрехта Дюрера, которая считалась утерянной после окончания Второй мировой войны, была обнаружена на блошином рынке во Франции, сообщила газета Guardian.
Коллекционер произведений искусства обнаружил гравюру на блошином рынке в округе Сарбур на северо-востоке Франции и купил ее всего за несколько евро. Когда покупатель заметил на обороте пометку государственной художественной галереи Штутгарта, он решил анонимно пожертвовать гравюру музею.
Медная гравюра "Дева Мария коронованная ангелом" была создана в 1520 году и хорошо сохранилась, сообщила эксперт музея Аннет Франкенбергер. Вероятно, гравюру бережно хранили обернутой в бумагу.

Art collector donates work by German Renaissance artist to Stuttgart museum after spotting it on bric-a-brac stall

An art collector has donated a lost work by the German artist Albrecht Dürer to a Stuttgart museum after discovering it in a French flea market being sold for just a few euros.

A retired French archaeologist noticed the work on a bric-a-brac stall in Sarrebourg, eastern France, after the seller cleared it out of a house in the town. He bought the piece and, after noticing the Staatsgalerie’s stamp on the back, he decided to donate it anonymously.
The engraving had been missing since the end of the second world war and had probably been wrapped in paper for some of the intervening decades to preserve it, Frankenberger said.
It was owned by a former deputy mayor of Sarrebourg before ending up at the market, she added.
The museum has not decided how to display the engraving. “We have to find the right setting to present it in,” Frankenberger said.
Dürer was born in 1471 in Nuremberg, southern Germany. He travelled through Italy in his 20s and quickly established a reputation as one of the greatest Renaissance artists.
