Dürer

Dürer was an artist famous for making finely detailed woodcut art. The Eighth Doctor considered Dürer to be a sane sort of fellow. During a visit to the Eula Mae Lavender Museum of Magic in New Orleans in 2003, he came across a woodcut that he thought may have been made by Dürer on first inspection. The woodcut featured a crouched man in a medieval robe making a gesture of a command of pleading towards a dark cloud, etched with fine details that gave the cloud malevolent features. When the Doctor asked the museum's curator Morgan Thales if the woodcut was a Dürer, Thales told him as far as he knew it was not, but it was from the same period as Dürer.
