Answer:

b. he carved bold designs into a smooth block of wood

Explanation:

Albrecht Dürer's work (1471-1528) includes sixty canvases, over one hundred metal engravings, about 250 woodcuts and 1,000 drawings, and three printed books. Two of them were published in life: 1525 Instruction for Ruler and Compass Measurements and 1527 Treatise on Fortifications. The book on the Proportion of the Human Body came out shortly after his death in 1528. Among the most celebrated works produced Dürer highlights The Apocalypse, a series of 15 dramatic woodcuts, considered one of the greatest creations of German art. Such work brought the 27-year-old artist wealth and fame throughout Europe, having been published in Latin and German at Nuremberg in 1498.
