Wendel Dietterlin

Print after his self-portrait

Wendel Dietterlin (c.1550–1599), sometimes Wendel Dietterlin the Elder, to distinguish him from his son, was a German mannerist painter, printmaker and architectural theoretician. Most of his paintings are now lost, and he is best known[1] for his treatise on architectural ornament, Architectura, published in its final edition in Nuremberg in 1598.
