Type: Exhibition

Albrecht Dürer was one of the most successful Renaissance artists and the greatest of all printmakers. Focussing on Dürer’s engravings, which spread his ideas and imagery across Europe, this exhibition reveals how influential his prints were by displaying his masterpieces alongside work by his contemporaries.

A loan exhibition from the Hunterian Museum and Art Gallery, University of Glasgow.

Road Directions

From Liverpool: Go through the Birkenhead (Queensway) Tunnel (toll). Once you leave the tunnel follow signs for Port Sunlight, driving along A41 (New Chester Road) - the gallery is sign posted all the way from the tunnel. At the roundabout take the third exit (Bolton Road). Take the right hand turn after the Bridge Inn. Continue along Church Drive passing the church and then the school on your right. Turn left into Windy Bank where you will see the gallery in front of you.

From elsewhere: Leave the M53 at junction 4, follow the B5137 and take the second left onto the B5136 towards Port Sunlight. Follow the brown and white road signs for Port Sunlight Village. Once you are in the village follow the signs for Lady Lever Art Gallery.

There is free parking for over 100 cars outside the gallery. This includes four spaces for disabled visitors immediately outside the gallery.

Continue along the pavement on the same side as the cottages for approximately 400 yards until you see the Leverhulme memorial and the Lady Lever Art Gallery on your left. Take the pathway on your left leading into Windy Bank and towards the memorial and the gallery. The entrance to the gallery is to the right side of the building opposite the fountain.
