"Der Liebesantrag" (The Proposal of Love) is a notable work by the German Renaissance artist Albrecht Dürer. Created in the late 15th or early 16th century, this piece exemplifies Dürer's skill in engraving and his exploration of human emotions and social interactions. The artwork depicts a scene in which a man appears to be making a romantic or matrimonial proposal to a woman, a common theme in European art that reflects the customs and societal norms of the period.

Albrecht Dürer (1471–1528) was a painter, printmaker, and theorist of the German Renaissance. Born in Nuremberg, Dürer established his reputation and influence across Europe when he was still in his twenties due to his high-quality woodcut prints. He was in communication with the major Italian artists of his time, including Raphael, Giovanni Bellini, and Leonardo da Vinci, and from 1512 was patronized by emperor Maximilian I.

The engraving "Der Liebesantrag" showcases Dürer's mastery of the burin, a tool used in engraving to create intricate lines and shading. His work is characterized by its high level of detail and its blend of Northern Renaissance and Italian Renaissance styles. The piece is also significant for its narrative quality, inviting viewers to ponder the story behind the characters and their interaction.

While "Der Liebesantrag" is not as widely known as some of Dürer's other works, such as "Melencolia I" or "Knight, Death, and the Devil," it remains an important example of his artistic legacy and his contributions to the art of engraving. The work is held in various art collections and has been the subject of scholarly study in the context of Dürer's oeuvre and the broader cultural and artistic trends of the Renaissance period.

As with many works of art from this era, the exact date of creation, provenance, and historical context of "Der Liebesantrag" may not be fully documented, and interpretations of the scene depicted can vary. However, the engraving continues to be appreciated for its aesthetic qualities and as a reflection of the themes and concerns of its time.
