Inscriptions

Signature and date top left:

ALBERT · / DVRER / NORICVS / FACIEBAT / AD · 1504 ·
[Albrecht Dürer of Nuremberg made this 1504] Signed and dated on plate
Notes Dürer derived Adam’s form from the "Apollo Belvedere;" Eve was based on his analysis of the "Medici Venus."
The five states of this engraving, an unusually high number for Dürer , together with the large number of preparatory drawings (see cat. nos. 88-90) document the particular care with which Dürer planned the design. It represents the culmination of his study of a system of human proportion seen in his slightly earlier drawings, cat. nos. 70 and 84 and displays his mastery of the engraving technique. Dürer 's pride in it is displayed in the longest, most prominent inscription he ever made on an engraving.

[edit]
This is a faithful photographic reproduction of a two-dimensional, public domain work of art. The work of art itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
Public domain

The author died in 1528, so this work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 100 years or fewer.

This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.

This file has been identified as being free of known restrictions under copyright law, including all related and neighboring rights.
The official position taken by the Wikimedia Foundation is that "faithful reproductions of two-dimensional public domain works of art are public domain".
This photographic reproduction is therefore also considered to be in the public domain in the United States. In other jurisdictions, re-use of this content may be restricted; see Reuse of PD-Art photographs for details.
