Apocalypse (Illustrated) (Gospel Illustrations by Albrecht Dürer)

Albrecht Dürer

4.7/5 ( ratings)

- Digitally restored illustrations
- Translated captions
- Annotated details

This is the Apocalypse online, an album of woodcuts by Albrecht Dürer inspired by the Book of Revelation.

According to general agreement, the German painter and printmaker from Nuremberg, Albrecht Dürer, was the greatest artist of the Northern Renaissance, producing a body of artistic output that was prodigious, admired and imitated by artists of his own and succeeding generations.

Watch for background landscapes and architectural features fashioned from Dürer's own familiar German surroundings, and yet they artistically portend the Biblical End of Days.

CONTENTS INCLUDE:

The Martyrdom of St. John the Evangelist
Vision of the Seven Candlesticks
Twenty-Four Elders in Heaven
The Four Riders of the Apocalypse
Opening the Fifth and Sixth Seals
Four Angels Stilling the Winds
Seven Angels With the Seven Trumpets
The Battle of the Angels
St. John Devours the Book
The Dragon with the Seven Heads
Michael Battles the Dragon
The Sea Monster and the Beast with Lambs' Horns
Adoration of the Lamb and the Hymn of the Chosen
The Whore of Babylon
Angel with the Key to the Bottomless Pit
The Final Judgment
