The graphic treasure by Albrecht Dürer (1471-1528), preserved in the Bassanese prints collection of the museum, is completely on display for the first time. A corpus of 214 prints, which is classified, considering both the quantity and the quality, together with the one preserved at the Albertina collection in Vienna as the most important and the most complete in the world.

Palazzo Sturm houses indeed, the Remondini Prints Museum, which preserves and shows, in a highly impressive way, the creations of the legendary dynasty of Bassanese printers. These were specialized in refined editions and popular prints which they could distribute all over the world between the 17th and the 18th century. The Remondinis were also very clever art collectors. In their important collections, now part of the museum's heritage, 8500 graphic works can be found, among which there are works by great European masters of the Renaissance and of the Modern Age. One of the major artists is Albrecht Dürer, having 123 xylographs and 91 engravings preserved in the Remondini collection.

Around that very famous work, Chiara Casarin, director of the Museo and curator of the exhibition, has decided to offer the visitors of the exhibition a specific focus on this topic, which, on the one hand, evokes the historical episode and on the other hand goes through the critical fortune of the print over the centuries. The rhino as a subject was a fascination for many artists, from Raffaello to Stubbs, to Salvador Dalì until to Li-Jen Shih, whose King Kong Rhino was taken to Bassano in order to prove how actual and universal Dürer's message still is. Li-Jen, among the most famous Chinese contemporary artists, has worked for forty years dealing with the rhino issue and his works are preserved in major private and public collections around the world.
