Yes, Albrecht Dürer was very interested in mathematics. See here: https://www.flickr.com/photos/jbuddenh/31131350214 for more history about this. His famous image: Melencolia I, shows (among lots of other things) a polyhedron which appears to be a truncated rhombohedron (some say a truncated cube).
