（单词翻译:单击）

An exhibition of one of Germany's most famous artists, Albrecht Duerer, has opened in his hometown of Nuremberg. The collection focuses on the popular Renaissance¹ artist's early work, and brings together an unprecedented² number of his paintings.
      Albrecht Duerer was born in Nuremberg on May 21st, 1471 and passed away in his hometown on April 6th, 1528. He was one of the great artists of the Northern Renaissance.
     He is best known for his vast body of religious works, including altar pieces, copper³ engravings and woodcuts.
     A true Renaissance man, whatever Duerer turned his hand to, he enjoyed success - from his watercolor landscapes and theorist texts to printmaking and mathematics.
     Now - for the first time - a large exhibition in his hometown of Nuremberg is celebrating his early life and work up to the year 1505.
    Curator Daniel Hess explains why the years before 1505 are the most important ones in Duerer’s artistic⁴ life.
    Daniel Hess, curator, said, "It made a lot of sense for us to focus on Duerer’s development until the year 1505. During this period of time the important developments of his artistic work took place. At this time,      Duerer stopped painting self portraits and aquarelle. Already in the year 1500 Duerer had begun his theoretical work and wrote more than ten books about painting."
   The exhibition brings together over 200 masterpieces from some of the most important museums around the world - the Metropolitan⁵ Museum of Art in New York, the British Library in London and the Uffizi in       Florence are just three of the 51 lenders from 12 countries.
   Duerer’s artworks are virtuoso⁶ examples of narrative⁷ and dramatic staging and enjoy unprecedented popularity.
