From LinkedCulture
This woodcut chariot was designed to crown an emperor who never lived to see it finished. Albrecht Dürer, working with cutter Hieronymus Andreae, completed the design around 1518 and published it independently in 1522 after Maximilian's death. Two muscular horses labeled for speed and strength strain forward in richly decorated harness, dense scrollwork filling the space above them. By removing the imperial family from the final version, Dürer quietly shifted the work from dynastic propaganda into something more personal, a memorial rather than a spectacle.
