The very famous German artist
Albrecht Dürer,
born in 1471 in Nuremberg in the Holy Roman Empire, is well known for his paintings and printmaking – especially Wood Cuts and Copper Engravings at the time of the High Renaissance.
And yes – there are 55 Copper Engravings (as listed in Wikipedia), which would qualify today as miniatures.
Dürer died in 1528 in Nuremberg.
