"Saint Anthony at the City" is an engraving created by the German Renaissance artist Albrecht Dürer in 1519. This work is part of Dürer's extensive and influential body of graphic prints, which includes woodcuts, engravings, and etchings. The engraving depicts Saint Anthony, a Christian monk from Egypt who lived in the 3rd and 4th centuries and is often referred to as the Father of All Monks. He is recognized for his piety and for battling the temptations of the devil in the desert.

In Dürer's depiction, Saint Anthony is shown seated in the foreground, calmly reading a book. Behind him, the viewer can see a cityscape that represents the material world and its distractions. The contrast between the serene saint and the bustling city serves to highlight Anthony's spiritual fortitude and his detachment from worldly concerns. The engraving is notable for its intricate detail and the masterful use of line, which is characteristic of Dürer's work.

"Saint Anthony at the City" is often analyzed in the context of Dürer's other religious works and is seen as a reflection of the artist's engagement with humanist thought and his deep interest in the natural world. The print has been widely studied for its iconography, composition, and technical mastery. It remains an important example of Northern Renaissance art and continues to be admired for its aesthetic qualities and its rich symbolism.

The engraving is held in various museum collections and has been the subject of scholarly research, contributing to the understanding of Dürer's artistic intentions and the cultural milieu of early 16th-century Europe. As with many of Dürer's prints, "Saint Anthony at the City" has been reproduced and circulated widely, helping to cement Dürer's reputation as one of the foremost printmakers of his time.
