The Nativity and the Coronation of the Virgin series by Durer highlights an interesting example of technological impacts on the art world. The series portrays the coronation of the virgin Mary by the Holy Trinity. Durer’s series is made with woodblocks enabling multiple copies of each scene to be produced. This reigns a new air to how society interacts with art. Prior there was a patron, artist, and singular work made, now Durer could distribute multiple of the same scenes. And in fact, in the 1500s, there were apocalyptic fears which helped with sales of the Virgin series. The printing press and other technological advancements coincide with the Renaissance time period, and thus, their impact on art is very interesting to observe.
