'''German Painting'''

[[Albrecht Dürer]] (1471 – 1528) became the founder of the [[German]] Renaissance.

The Danube School of German Painting (1500 - 1550) was a group of German and [[Austrian]] artists. In the early 16th century, Lucas Cranach the Elder, [[Albrecht Altdorfer]], and Wolfgang Huber, painted landscapes of that area.

''The centre of south German painting had by the late 1730s shifted from Munich to Augsburg in Swabia, where Johann Georg Bermüller became the director of the Academy in 1730; but his frescoes, as well as those of Franz Joseph Spiegler and Gottfried Bernhard Goetz, are perhaps more representative of the Late Baroque than the Rococo.'' <ref>[http://www.britannica.com/eb/topic-62327/Johann-Georg-Bermuller Johann-Georg-Bermuller]</ref>

The [[Leipzig]] and [[Dresden]] Schools are among the latest generations of German painters.
