"Dürer did not fall from the sky." R. Suckale, Die Erneuerung der Malkunst vor Dürer, Petersberg 2009

Summary/Abstract: Two volumes of Die Erneuerung der Malkunst vor Dürer by Robert Suckale comes as a wide state of research over painting of the second half of 15th c. in Nuremberg and Bamberg, a publication in which the author proves that attributing Albrecht Dürer many innovative solutions is incorrect, as the artist, in quite many cases, made use of older than him masters’ achievements. The above mentioned title comes as a very helpful one in studies in Late Gothic art of not only Franconia but also of artistic centres related to this area, e.g. Wrocław and, not directly, other Lower Silesian towns. Moreover, next to numerous plots of high interest, Suckale deals with a problem of influence of Early Netherlandish painting on German art, with special attention paid to Franconia, stating many conclusions which may become helpful in researching this issue within the area of Silesia.
