'''Hans Tucher''' is a portrait painting by the German Renaissance artist Albrecht Dürer, completed in 1499. The artwork is a part of a pair of portraits depicting the Nuremberg patrician Hans Tucher and his wife Felicitas Tucher, née Rieter. This painting is executed in oil on linden wood and measures 47 cm by 38 cm. It is currently housed in the Germanisches Nationalmuseum in Nuremberg, Germany.

The portrait of Hans Tucher is a testament to Dürer's skill in capturing the psychological depth and individuality of his sitters. Dürer's mastery of the oil medium is evident in the fine details of Tucher's attire and the lifelike texture of his skin. The subject is depicted against a dark, neutral background that enhances the three-dimensionality of the figure. Hans Tucher is shown in a three-quarter profile, which was a common pose in portrait painting of the time, wearing the black and white clothing indicative of his social status.

The Tucher family was among the wealthiest and most influential patrician families in Nuremberg, and their patronage of Dürer reflects both their status and the cultural vibrancy of the city during the late 15th and early 16th centuries. The portrait is notable for its representation of the subject's character and the artist's use of symbolism to convey the sitter's wealth and position. The inclusion of a small, inscribed cartellino, or piece of paper, bearing Dürer's monogram and the date of the painting's completion, serves as a testament to the artist's pride in his work and his growing fame.

As one of the leading figures of the Northern Renaissance, Albrecht Dürer was renowned for his contributions to painting, printmaking, and art theory. His portraits, in particular, are celebrated for their innovative approach to individual likeness and character, as well as for their technical precision. The ''Hans Tucher'' portrait, alongside its companion piece, provides valuable insight into the societal norms and artistic conventions of the time, as well as Dürer's own development as a portraitist.
