This is an Albrecht Durer engraving created in 1513. It is an engraving of St. Peter and St. John healing the Lame man at the Gate of the Temple. I chose it because when I looked at it, I fell in love with the faces. The expression on them captures their emotions so well. The attention to detail also in the piece and the realistic nature of their bodies and clothing impressed me. I also loves that there looked like there was so much going on. Like you could break the piece down into sections and still probably have a reaction about each one.
