Remember me
More than 100 Renaissance portraits, from Dürer to Sofonisba
Do you see me? And how do you see me? Powerful emperors, flamboyant aristocrats and well-to-do citizens. Throughout the 15th and 16th centuries, increasing numbers of people had themselves immortalised by the artists of the day. Remember me is about ambition, longing, loss – and how people want to be remembered.
