The story of Self-Portrait at Twenty-Eight
Dürer painted this self-portrait, oil on panel, 67.1 x 48.9 cm, early in 1500, just before turning 29; it is the last of his three painted self-portraits. His frontal pose and the position of his hand echo conventions of Christ images. The picture stayed on public display in Nuremberg until 1805, when it was sold to the Bavarian royal collection.

Albrecht Dürer
Albrecht Dürer, sometimes spelled in English as Durer or Duerer, was a German painter, printmaker, and theorist of the German Renaissance. Born in Nuremberg, Dürer established his reputation and influence across Europe in his twenties due to his high-quality woodcut prints. He was in contact with the major Italian artists of his time, including Raphael, Giovanni Bellini and Leonardo da Vinci, and from 1512 was patronized by Emperor Maximilian I.
