ALDEGREVER, or ALDEGRAF, HEINRICH (1502-1558)

This article appears in Volume V01, Page 531 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: AJA-ALL
ALDEGREVER, or ALDEGRAF, HEINRICH (1502-1558) ,
German
  painter and engraver, was born at Paderborn, from which he removed in early
life
  to
Soest
 , where he died. From the
close
  resemblance of his
style
  to that of Albrecht Dtirer he has sometimes been called the Albert of Westphalia. His numerous engravings, chiefly from his own designs, are delicate and
minute
 , though somewhat hard in
style
 , and entitle him to a
place
  in the front rank of the so-called " Little Masters." There is a good collection in the British Museum. Specimens of his
painting
  are exceedingly rare. Five pictures are in
continental
  galleries, but the genuineness of the works in the Vienna and
Munich
  collections attributed to 'him is at least doubtful, the only unchallenged example being a portrait of Engelbert Therlaen (1551) in the Berlin Museum.
