''The Large Turf'' (''Das große Rasenstück'') is a watercolor painting by the German artist Albrecht Dürer, created in 1503 during the Renaissance period. Renowned for its intricate detail and naturalistic representation, the painting is a masterful example of Dürer's skill in observing and depicting nature. Measuring 41 cm × 31 cm (16 in × 12 in), it is held in the collection of the Albertina Museum in Vienna, Austria.

The work depicts a seemingly simple and unassuming subject: a large piece of turf with various species of plants and grasses. However, Dürer's meticulous approach to the painting elevates it to a study of the diversity and complexity of nature. The artist's keen eye for detail is evident in the precise rendering of each plant, capturing their different textures and forms with exceptional accuracy.

"The Large Turf" is often celebrated for its scientific accuracy and is considered a precursor to botanical illustration, which gained prominence in the centuries following Dürer's work. The painting's composition is devoid of any human presence or artistic embellishments, which was a significant departure from the typical art of the time that often included religious or allegorical symbolism. Instead, Dürer chose to focus solely on the natural world, showcasing his reverence for its beauty and intricacy.

This painting is not only a testament to Dürer's artistic talent but also reflects the growing interest in the natural sciences during the Renaissance. It stands as an important work in the history of art, demonstrating the shift towards observation-based representation and the appreciation of the natural world for its own sake. "The Large Turf" continues to be admired for its pioneering approach to naturalism and remains a significant piece in the study of Northern Renaissance art.
