Albrecht Dürer - Self portrait

I just love how he always signed his name: big A, little D embedded within- and always a date- just to make sure we all remember when he painted it.
He looks a bit like Jesus in this portrait doesn't he? What I found interesting about Durer was that he was a godly man- very unusual for his day. He said when he painted this self-portrait that the older we get, the more we should look like Jesus- thus, the locks.  He did seem like a genuine man who truly loved the Lord based on my reading, but of course, I still have more to learn about him...so further reading might reveal more.
