The Dresden Altarpiece, specifically its central panel, is a significant work by the renowned German Renaissance artist Albrecht Dürer. Created between 1496 and 1497, this altarpiece is an exemplary representation of Dürer's early mastery in combining Northern European artistic traditions with the burgeoning influences of the Italian Renaissance. The central panel of the Dresden Altarpiece, which is housed in the Gemäldegalerie Alte Meister in Dresden, Germany, depicts the Virgin and Child enthroned, flanked by saints and angels, encapsulating a serene yet majestic religious scene.

Dürer's meticulous attention to detail and his innovative use of perspective and composition are evident in this work. The central panel is characterized by its rich iconography and the harmonious arrangement of figures, which reflect Dürer's deep understanding of human anatomy and his skillful rendering of textures and fabrics. The Virgin Mary is depicted with a tender and contemplative expression, holding the Christ Child, who reaches out to the viewer, symbolizing the connection between the divine and humanity.

The altarpiece was commissioned by Frederick the Wise, Elector of Saxony, for the Wittenberg Castle Church, underscoring Dürer's prominence as a sought-after artist of his time. The central panel's intricate details, such as the delicate rendering of the angels' wings and the intricate patterns of the textiles, demonstrate Dürer's exceptional talent in both painting and engraving.

The Dresden Altarpiece stands as a testament to Dürer's artistic evolution and his ability to synthesize various artistic influences into a cohesive and impactful work. It remains a pivotal piece in the study of Northern Renaissance art, offering insights into the religious and cultural milieu of late 15th-century Germany.
