Hands by Albrecht Durer, the so-called perfect artist--whose woodcut and copper engravings were major expressions of his art. He used many religious themes, and was noted for his sensitive and detailed drawings. The story is that these were the hands of someone who had great faith in his ability, and worked to help him attain his artistic training; that in the process, their own hands became so gnarled as to be incapable of equal work; and in gratitude, and because he saw theirlabor of love as- beautiful, he immortalized the hands.
